Choose a laptop? price 40-50k?

Be sure to laptop
It's time to change your typewriter that honestly served 4 years faithfully.
Due to the fact that the laptop is chosen for a long time, I would like to see its capacity not obsolete in a year or two (yes, despite the progress in technology).
I work as a programmer, the laptop will be used both for work (launching a pair of virtual machines + VS, for example) and for entertainment (games at maximum, movies in hd would be very nice).
I was already picked up like this about 2 months ago, asus: i7, 8GB of RAM (I don’t remember the video card), the extension is 1900 * xxx (I also forgot) - but then the price was limited to 40 thousand (the laptop itself seemed to cost 34k).
Perhaps closer to 50k there is something better?
It is planned to multiboot windows & linux (archlinux most likely), so if it is possible to buy a laptopwithout pre-installed Win7 - it would be great.
Quality is also important, because after buying a Samsung (a netbook + a phone for a girl, both burned out after 2 months), I get a gag reflex when I name this company. Maybe this is not true, but I sincerely hate them

I googled with ivy ASUS N56VZ , in it suits me by all criteria.
The amount allows, maybe there will be negative feedback from the habra community?

I would advise you to divide the purchase into 3: a small mobile laptop 13-15 inches is not very productive, a separate 24-inch monitor and a separate productive system unit where you can keep additional virtual machines or drive games.
With a productive laptop, a lot of crap is heavy, noisy, heated, and performance is significantly inferior to non-mobile hardware.

With a budget of 50k, it's a sin not to take a Thinkpad T-shku.

If you are not in a hurry, wait until October-November when Ivy Bridge laptops go. Then there will be more choice, and the price of Sandy Bridge will fall, you will not lose in any case.

a) Wait for ivy. In pluses — silence, coldness, time of work. 15" will certainly be on it, but if you want 1920x1080, it's better to look from 17", otherwise it will be small.
b) 50k allows you to take a laptop with a good and matte screen if you take a tn matrix, and not ips (good ips are more expensive), so look first at the screen and only then at the iron specifications.

HP Pavilion dv7-7002er also with ivy, quite suitable characteristics. But, yes, we need to wait for reviews.

Brother, is the manager of a store selling digital equipment. Recently, there has been a lot of marriage on the part of Asus and HP.
So it's better to look towards Samsung, Sony, Acer. But it is quite possible that you will be able to get a good asus.
