Default Re: Need Help Buying A Laptop

get p4 1.6ghz at minimum. it operates at a 533mhz bus.
1.5ghz and under operate at a 400mhz bus.

All p4 centrino chips have wireless built-in. Most Dell 6000 and 9300 models use Centrino chips.

and if you're using the el-cheapo Intel 900 shared memory graphics card, it makes an EVEN bigger difference to get the 533mhz bus. your video will be faster. (it's late and i'm not sure i'm explaining this correctly.)

preferred screen size: 15.4" or 17"
People have wrote that 1900x1200 resolution on a 15.4" screen is fine for 4 tabling poker.

screen resolution: pick only UXGA (1600x1200) or wuxga (1900x1200). these are the only 2 resolutions that allow you to 4 table w/o overlap.

15.4" screen is fine for uxga.

debatable about 15.4" for wuxga. but a 17" screen is more expensive, and makes the laptop heavier.
