You will break it within 3 months just like everything else :)

I've got a Dell 9100 laptop 3.4 ghz, 2 gig ram, 256meg ghx card. The thing FLYS.

Sounds like you have a year or two more advanced again, the dual core sounds sweet, does that work on all apps? or just things like Adobe Photoshop that are optimized for dual stuff like that?

battery life must blow.

Never but an intel laptop unless you plan on having it plugged in to the wall all the time.

Only 1000 dollars???

How much did u pay for it?

Yes! You are 100% right Juicy, dual core laptops really rocks, more even if it's Macbook pro hahaha8212; 2GHz or 2.16GHz Core Duo

Overly powerful laptops are about as useful as a trap door on lifeboat.

what do you have in it and what do you use it for?

i want one. im still using a couple of old dells

Well, unless you need an overly powerful laptop... which many people do, including myself.

This is one of the few boards where people need overly powerful laptops. Last night I was rendering video in vegas, I had Fireworks open working on graphics, Dreamweaver open as well inserting those graphics and Firefox open posting on the boards.

I'm not the only one doing this I'm sure.

I also have a Dell Inspiron 6400 duo core, excellent!

Totally agree, this business often requries powerful laptops especially if your working with video (at any time). I need a Desktop powerful machine and the laptops are now powerful enough to completely get rid of the desktops. My laptop weights like 9 pounds but I take it from home to the car to work and back. That way I have the same computer at home as I have at work its perfect and powerful enough for anything

I don't have a laptop, but I went from a P4 3ghz w/hyper threading and 1.2gb of ram to a Pentium D 3ghz/800FSB with 2 gigs Dual Channel DDR2 533 and it fucking rocks.

thats the one I am buying once I am totally sick and tired of my 9300!

not a bad deal for under $1k :thumbsup

ya shoulda got the NASCAR themed AMD Turion64 they had on QVC for $996
