Default Re: Techie Advice - Poker Laptop

I agree with the poster who suggested the Dell Inspiron. That's what I have and it's sweet. With two batteries I can go for about 5-6 hours before I run out of juice.

Also, IMHO the high end screen (I forget what it's called, but it's the best one you can buy) is worth it. I can run 1600 x 1200 and it is crystal clear (better than my CRT at the same resolution).

One thing I'd recommend...you can get really burned on memory buying it directly from dell. The better option is to just take whatever base memory they offer and then go to crucial and buy whatever you need and install it yourself. This probably voids your warranty, but I'm not one for extended warranties either.
