I wanna buy a $600 laptop...
--11.6" screen (1366x768, unfortunately glossy finish)
--3.1 lbs
--Core 2 Duo 1.3GHz (<10W TDP)
--2x2GB DDR2 800
--320GB 5200rpm drive
--Windows 7 HP 64-bit
--Intel 4500MHD
--802.11b/g/draft-N & Bluetooth EDR 2.1
--Webcam & microphone built-in
--"8+ hour battery life" (I'd more accurately guess 5-6 hours)
Absolutely awesome price, size, and features. I'd much prefer an 11.6" laptop with a 1.3GHz C2D than a 15.4" laptop with a C2D 2.6ghz. I'd have to be a touch careful with Win7 though; WinVista played OK but not perfectly with my Allendale-1M @ 1.6GHz and was noticably slow @ 1.2GHz. Then again I ran a relatively large program set. Other than stuff like GameJackel, I won't need half as much I don't think. What I do like however is that it's similarly priced to a few Pentium D-C's at 1.3GHz but the Core 2 Duo has Virtualization; makes it easier for a laptop to run a 2nd OS.
