My current desktop pc is perfect in every way, except for power consumption. When I am not gaming, I like to have music playing or be able to just mess around online, but to have my whole setup running while I do it is kind of stupid.

I know what I am looking for, its just I am not familiar when it comes to laptop price/performance. By what I described it sounds like I am looking for a netbook kind of thing but I need just a little more power than that. Since this laptop is for when I am not gaming, graphics will not be an issue, it just needs to be capable of playing the occasional movie. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. (brand isn't really important, asus is just the first thing that comes to mind for this)
