I own a compaq presario notebook with 1.6 ghz intel centrino tech. If you want a thrifty laptop when it comes to power saving, this is for you. It gradually reduce processing utilization when on mobile but not reduce capabilities and speed.

I've got a dell inspiron 9300
Pentium M 2.13 ghz
1024mb ddr2 ram
100gb hdd
Geforce 6800 go
17inch widescreen.

It's a little on the heavy side but not too heavy.
We have a small lan party every weekend so I use it there.
It rocks. Battery life is like 2 hours with wi-fi.

Ouch sounds like you specced it out to the max. How much did it set you back? £1600+ ?

Cost me about 2300$.

It's well worth it,
I just oc'ed the graphics card a bit and i'm getting 3853 points in 3dmark2005.

It's a great thing to use at lan parties, not having to lug around a huge desktop.

Got a second hand Toshiba Portege 3505 Tablet PC, 1Gb ram, 100Gb HD, 1.3Ghz PIII. Does exactly what it says on the tin...

Got a Toshiba Portege M200 too @ work. Not much difference really!

BUT - my most used PC is a FS Pocket Loox 720 PDA. Better than anything HP makes at the moment!
...Silver Xperia Arc, 32GB SD card...

128 mb shared SiS GPU
40 GB Hitachi (5400rpm)
DVD drive/CD-R/RW burner
15" TFT LCD (1024x768)
3xUSB 2.0 ports

it wasnt to expensive either.. Payed around 700USD for it. Perfect lappy for my use, since it's mostly used to play movies, do homework and play music

I have the Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebook P7120. With this small and light 10.6-inch display notebook, I am really portable. I am having the add-on battery installed instead of the DVD-writer. It stays alive for over 10 hours without charging

BTW. I am photographing a lot, and used to have a Type II Compact-flash adapter permanently installed in the PCMCIA slot. Transfering 2GB of data to the PC took 35 minutes!. In addition to that, the CPU usage was over 90%. I could not work on the PC when the transfer was in progress. This was a problem when I visited CeBIT earlier this year and wanted to publish news with images fast. I have now changed the "regular" adapter with a Lexar 32-bit CardBus Adapter. The result: 5% CPU usage and 2GB transfer time is 4-four minutes.

blast from the past lol.

I use a 15" 2.0ghz 2gb of ram macbook pro backed up by over 500gb of external storage, 2 printers, 1 scanner, 3 cameras and a 20" wide screen lcd.

When im on the move I can use my lappy for over 3 hours (not as good as Laffen) although as the laptop is so thin and light just as portable and its a mac

morning laffen - what brings this one back up?
Check out my sales
I am a mac fanboy .
I will honor Laffens gift of P990 flip free avartar, but I sold the p990
