ditto battery...I have a T61p and regret getting the "fast graphics chip" which sucks royally compared to any desktop graphics card while also s#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g craploads of power and giving me only 2.5hrs of battery time :-P
I also regret getting a 15.4" wide laptop...it's just bulkier than I expected, so if I had to do over, I'd get a 14.1" wide laptop...I figured the extra screen resolution would help the godawful vs.net UI which is a screen hog. The size only matters if you travel though. If it's just a desktop alternative, get an inexpensive 17" laptop and be done with it.

Lots of cheapo black friday deals including a laptop for a measly $380 so it's a great time to buy...
