Just curious. I haven't seen anyone mention it and no one really seems excited about the centrino laptops...

I am waiting for the rest to be released but I am leaning toward a 5500 I can keep at work. Then when the new ALXs come out, I will snag one of them.

*Hope the wife wasn't planning on that new motorcycle lol*

I am also waiting for the entire line. I like small and light... I am going to get a new desktop for my heavy lifting. Of course, I am looking to get a few notebooks for the gang at the office, so I might get a couple of each and keep the one I like the best... It's good to be the king.

I'm considering the 5700, but I won't order till I see what's on the horizon.

I am going to wait also...I do think there is an AMD 7800 on its way, and then I will pull the trigger....but I do also like the 5700, I just hope I can sing Merry Christmas to me...!!! I know Ruxor wants to sing that to himself also....
