The N53SV is the laptop to get if you want power, but you're on a budget. We'd love a higher-quality keyboard, but this only a small bugbear in an otherwise excellent laptop.
It's surprising the sort of quality that you can get on a budget these days. Take Asus' AU$1299 N53S — while the grey wrist rest with wood-grain pattern may be a matter of taste, the laptop is well constructed and of higher quality than you'd expect for the price bracket.
It still falls into the extremely common trap of providing a 1366x768 screen, though, something that with a screen size of 15.6 inches always seems a little too low. Still, the screen is reasonably bright, and the colour is just fine.
