I don't own a laptop, or really like them very much, but most of the people I know are of the opinion that IBMs are the best.

yeah, hopefully, nothing that&#39;s in that lappy from dell will be on backorder, or got thrown back into product testing. From what I hear tho, dell is pretty good about that chit.

At least you&#39;re not gonna have to worry about a problem that came up when I was working for *cough cough cough* where two truckloads of monitors got stolen and delayed shipping of about 250 desktops. HA&#33; Try explaining that to customers....sorry we cant ship it yet, somebody stole your monitor. Be another day or two for us to get another one fer ya.

Its a gaming laptop, but that means its high performance. Good specs, the XP Pro upgrade is 57 more, but by taking other things off you should be able to chop the price down to around &#036;2400.

I hope this helps.
