Becoming obsolete. Get at least XWUXGA.

it's not the worst advice but it's certainly expensive. for uxga they still make you get up to the firegl graphics, etc. runs around 3k for a decent system.

You can upgrade the 6000 from xga to WUXGA for 150. I bought one 2 weeks ago and love it. 4 tables, no overlap, like 3 inches on the right of the screen leftover for AIM.

Definitely what I would recommend. I don't think I would go with the 9300 because 17+ inches just seems to big.

you can probably score a 9300 with wuxga (more than enough to 4-table with no overlap) for 1500 or less

I concur. And make sure to get all the options you want up front, cause you really can't upgrade a laptop after the fact. (i.e. video card, screen, processor...)
