[P1] 17" Laptops

[Remell Boyer]

What I always tell people Jack, is that you have to look at what you'll be doing with the machine, then look at your budget.  if you are just looking for a laptop with a 17" monitor, then do you really want to pay and extra thousand for it.  Then of course, I would have to advise you on your preference of platform.  Its not an easy decision to make, I know.  But if it doesn't really matter, then put the grand in your pocket or use it towards more ram, that always helps, no matter what kind of machine you use.

I envy, your dilemma ;)
