I understand that technology changes in a cycle of 3 months for computer hardware. However, last time I wanted to get a notebook, the 64-bit AMD notebook processors were on the horizon. Therefor, that deterred me from obtaining the 8104 that I was seriously interested in obtaining.

So anyways, I am wondering if it's relatively safe to invest in a notebook now. I normally do not conduct research on the latest and greatest technologies available for notebooks, so I was wondering if anyone could give their knowledge and input.

Therefore, if you cannot answer the question of whether or not it's safe to invest, then can you please let me know of any new technologies that might arise that may make a notebook bought today seem like a dinosaur tomorrow? Mainly, I'm interested in any major notebook upgrades (i.e. CPU and graphics card).

Thank you in advance for any help.
