After many reviews and considerations I decided to go with the Compaq x1000. Much better hardware than the Dell inspiron 8500 I was considering. It doesn't get too hot either
I got a 1.3 Ghz Pentium M, DVD/24X CD-RW,
256 MB RAM (512 MB more on order),
WSXGA screen (excellent screen and resolution 1680X1050, fonts are not small at all just perfect),
no wireless(since I already have a D-Link wireless setup), 64MB Radeon 9200, 40GB Hardisk, JBL pro speakers (better sound than most laptops but not ultimate quality),
SD card reader integrated, 3 usb 2.0 port, 1 firewire, 1 PCMCIA, ! parallel port, 1 serial port, 1 ethernet port, and s-video output.
Total after rebates: $1182!!!
I hope I don't need compaq support since there is a lot of people complaining about horrible service...
