I think I am moving in a direction. : ) I wish I could see these things first. Out of curiousity, what is the deal with the Blue lid on yours? Also, are you aware of anyone with your specs with a 1.7 or 1.8 instead of the 2.0 who has...

Thanks you two! And obimatt...you are right on target, in that I am in a very similar boat. No kids yet, but a wife and school is about 45 minutes away. I appreciate all your comments. I was particularly pleased to hear your thoughts...

First, let me apologize for putting up yet another "what should I do" post. I have spent so long pouring over this forum (and I love it) but I am having a hard time keeping everything organized and making it personal to me. ...

Kethal, Do you have any benchmarks for your system up anywhere? That would likely be the same specs I would go for excpet perhaps a 7200rpm HD. Also, what kind of difference are we talking about between 1.7 and 1.8?

Gotcha.... ummm... Weight is not a HUGE issue. I suppose up to about 6 or 7 lbs.? But it is a negotiable. Budget? I am hoping to stay around or below $2000.... Need any other info I am leacing out, please just let me know. Thanks!

Excellent....Thanks guys. I appreciate it. I will check both of those out more carefully. I like the sound of the sager. If I can upgrade to a 12 cell battery (which I didn't know) that might be good. Alos, I will probably...

First, AWESOME board folks! Just spent the better part of last night on here and learned alot. I am in the same boat as many here: looking for a new laptop. There are so many and moreover, so many opinions out there! It is beyond...
