If you want stylish, light, and battery life, you can't go past an asus.
I just went through the process of buying for one. They kick ass over any other option - and i went over Apple, Dell, IBM, Toshiba, Compaq/HP, Alienware, Sony.

I have a laptop w/ DVD Burner / wifi / bluetooth / 1280x768 / usb / firewire / memory card reader (v. cool) / lan / TV out / svideo out / 80gb hdd / 750mb ram / INBUILT wireless logitech mouse / inbuilt 1.3MP webcam / camera / mic / up to 7 hours battery

weighs only 1.6KG, and less than an inch thick.
Amazing.
W5000 series.
The v6000 is damn nice, too.

I've got to say, I CAN'T see how any of the other systems can really compete to this. Compaq / HP laptops of this weight only START at 1k over this price. IBMs are as ugly as sin.
Apples start to compare, but at the end of the day, they're apples.

Toshiba only starts at double the price.

Without sounding arrogant - I'm very confident that if you cross compare features, cost, style and weight, these things come out on top.
