Im looking to buy a laptop and looking for one thats powerful enough to do video editing.

Im kind of confused because some have celeron processors, some are pentium 4's, Pentium M's, AMD athlons and I have no idea whats best.
I do light video editing, just cutting clips.

any recommendations for a laptop that can do video editing but isnt way over priced? My max budget is like $1,500

Miy laptop was a bit more expensive (around $2150 after rebate), but I edit video on my Dell Inspiron 8600 with a 1.7 Ghz Pentium M chip, as well as use it as my main pc for e-mail and web surfing. it has a pretty good battery life too.
