Default Re: should I buy this laptop???

I was trying to be helpful with more accurate numbers, while not completely disregarding what you had said.

Get the 60GB 7200RPM drive

Get WSXGA+ at least or WUXGA (very good multitasking/tabling but pretty small)

The highest end Dell Truemobile card is supposedly better than the Intel 2200

Bluetooth is nice

Get at least 1.7GHz (where the CPU has more cache and more battery efficient)

Buy the minimum amount of RAM you can and buy the rest at crucial.com, Dell rips people off big time on RAM

A 9600 PRO 128MB video card would be nice, but only a necessity if you game at all.

The cd-rom bay battery is also pretty cool to have, it lets you get like 7-8 hrs of battery life at the cost of only your cd-rom drive (you can switch them at any time)
