Just snagged a new laptop.

Emachines MD 64 3200+, 512ram (replacing next week to 1256), 80gig hd (replacing next week to a 7200rpm), RADEON 9600.

$1399 after rebates. =)

Yes, I know its an Emachines... but they arent the same emachines of past, their manufacturer sells to plenty of the higher "name" brands... and it has a new owner, gateway just bought them out for their consumer side, since gateway is more gov/k12.

Got the extra warranty, but thus far pretty happy... It'll do a 12k on 2001se from futuremark.

Probably the best gaming laptop sub $3k right now, can't beat the price anyways. =)

That's the fastest laptop on the market right now.

E-Machines builds solid machines now. They were acquired a while back and the new owner completely changed from making low end to making higher quality at great prices.

I bought one for my son. It's great.

Thats nice. =)

I just didnt wanna throw down $3k+ for a p4 with comp specs... even though it'd be better for video editing for me.

I based my decision mainly on the video card. The 9600 rocks. =)

2.5-3hrs on normal tasks.

Watching dvd around 2hrs.

It looks like this chip power consumption is between a p4 and a centrino, smack in the middle.

Forgot to mention that $1399 after rebates, included an internal dvd burner. =)

Im extremely happy thus far... I almost bought a 17" zd7000 fully stocked, but honestly, thats not really portable.
