$5000 budget for a laptop -- your dream configuration
Assuming you had $5K (and no more than $5K) to spend on a laptop, what would be your dream configuration?
I'm gathering ideas for a replacement to my current Dell laptop. Details: Brand? Hard Drive size? Memory? Video Add ons? DVD specs? etc etc |

Go for the cheapest.
Why spend big cash on a powerfull laptop? Even very cheap laptops can cope with most things. To be honest, I think I would opt for a Mac laptop for the heck of it.

depends on what u want to do with it.
if you need it for travel - gets something small (which will be even cheaper) if you need a laptop that won't be leaving your office - get a big workhorse (P4 3.4Mhz 17", 1G RAM) - something like that. I'd go for a VAIO on P4 processor. |

I'd go for a 12" iBook (yes, I said iBook, not PowerBook) and spend the rest of the money on pizza. All I want is stability, a huge battery life and the ability to write on it

I'm really digging the super slim offerings lately. I've been tempted by this little Sony notebook that uses one of those Intel Centrino processors. It has a 10" screen but runs a 1280 width resolution.

For that price just pick up a top of the line Alienware or FalconNW.
You won't find a better laptop than what they offer. If you're interested in battery life then you might want to scale things back a bit though. |

I'm a big fan of my Dell Inspiron 8600
Centrino Mobile Technology gives it about 3 hours of battery life and their WUXGA monitor just plain kicks ass You can pretty much get top of the line everything for about $3700. http://configure.us.dell.com/dellsto...8600F5&s= dhs
