My priorities for a laptop were initially size, then batterlife, then speed then price. Then I realized I'm a poor college student.
So now it's price, performance, battery life, size.
I need suggestions cause i'm seriously considering impulse buying a 1000 - 1100 laptop. Speed is important, graphics are not important at all. Ideally I want 512 of ram but I'll deal with 256 as that's an easy upgrade later. I would like a reasonable battery life but I know that doesn't come with cheap laptops.
I wish I could afford the IBM t42 that has caught my fancy, but anyway, any suggestions? This splurge was inspired by the fact that I found i could configure a A64 compaq for 1k with 512 of ram and an a64.
