Rude, hope you don't mind a real detail Q here. Can you enlighten me on the quality differences between Presario and Armada notebooks. I just checked out a 1255 Presario. I really like the key arrangement, particularly the scroll buttons down there with the Internet buttons although the keyboard is mushy. THere is a 1655 with a 13"TFT that would suit me fine. However, an Armada with similar features is several hundred dollars more. Even more than buying a 4 year warranty for the Presario. I was told by a reseller that the Presarios come in for a lot of warranty work. I'm getting the impression that if I want to keep the notebook for a few years and travel with it I should go for the Armada in spite of the premium of 25% or so.

Can you or anyone else comment?

Thanks.

Stuart. (looking/hoping for $58 within 7 days)
