Hello guys

I would like to buy a new notebook, probably a HP or Asus with Intel core i7 or i5.

Which is the best configuration/model for installing Lion on it?

My doubts are only about graphic card since I don't know which model (Amd or nvidia) is supported 100% natively by Lion.

Maybe also the motherboard chipset is not easy to know which is the best.

Can you help me guys?

Thank you

Don't double post!

The best laptop to install OS X on is either a macbook, macbook air or macbook pro.
No PC laptop will give you the full OS X experience, though some laptops such as the HP ProBook 4530s are very well supported.

Look for Nvidia graphics where possible as they are less problematic than ATI/AMD.
Any SandyBridge i3, i5 or i7 should work pretty much OOTB.

Check the HCL on the wiki for 10.7 portables.

Asus G73-{censored} works great and since there are 2 HDD you can format one to GUID if you like
