Question
Dear Sir/Madam

My question to you is

I wont to buy a laptop which has a
1:internal dvd burner
2:the size should me less than 10 inches
3: the weight should be less than One kg.

Can you tell me  which laptops in the market fit the above criteria.

I am sure you can help me out.
Waiting for your reply
Thanks "

Answer
Doing some basic conversion to US units, one KG is 2.2 lbs, which will be nearly impossible to find. 10" screens are also somewhat hard to find. This is about standard for a notebook:

If you don't need Windows, you could consider an Apple Mac Book, and finally I'd look at a Toshiba similar to this:

Your dimension requirements put a pinch on price, personally I'd just suggest settling for a little bit larger package, and getting much more power out the system.
