So far I can't find a notebook that will suit my needs so I need some help.

Any brand will suffice.

1. NO 64 bit OS
2. Must have ATI or Nvidia graphics, not Intel
3. Screen size 14" - 15" / 16" is too big for portability
4. Built-in Bluetooth (could live without this but it is ideal)
5. Vista (either downgradeable to XP or Free Upg to Win7)

Fulfilling these specs is actually quite difficult while keeping in the $800-$1200 range and not going 16" or bigger. Please help me find it today, thanks to all.

I went with the Acer TM6593. This subject matter must be getting boring for only 1 reply :)
