One major difference is the video -- P7k is equipped with integrated Intel Extreme 2 (64 MB system RAM); M6 is powered by ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 (64 MB dedicated VRAM). How huge is this difference?

However, the P7k is much smaller and has much better battery life than the M6.

Oh, and the price....

I'm not sure how you can compare them. The M6ne is small and light for a DTR, but the Fujitsu is a tiny ultraportable.

My choice would be the Asus, but I like a big, high res screen.

If you wanted something inbetween, the Benq 7000 joybook, the Sony S series or the Dell 700m might be worth a look.

A world of difference between the IIE2 and the ATI9700. The P doesnt even come close to the power of the Asus.

These two laptops are so diferent that it is difficult to point out even one thing they have in common.
The Asus is my choice - among many others - for a light, powerful, and yet mobile DTR laptop.
If I needed an ultraportable however, the Fujitsu would have been on top of my list.

Same here. For my, only my, needs, I would go with the Asus because I don't need ultraportables. You're probably one more that will only solve this alone .

These are in different genres, so it's really about deciding if you need an ultraportable or need the extra power of the asus.
