lappy@40K+how are ASUS Laptops

[nims11]

i want to buy a laptop below 40K. my primary work will be coding, movies, and casual gaming. I will be mostly using Linux. Screen size not an issue as i will be using an external monitor. Also, i will be using this laptop for next 4 years (in college)

I have found ASUS laptops quite attractive. how is this model?
ASUSTeK Computer Inc. - Notebooks- ASUS A53SJ

but a search on this model doesnt return many results or reviews.

any other suggestions (ASUS or LENOVO preferred)?

thanx in advance.

Don't see any difference between A53 and K53 except the color. The review is for a higher config (Blu-ray, Win7 and 540M instaed of 520M).
