I am looking into buying a new notebook computer for use as a general-purpose machine. One of my primary uses on the old laptop was for testing new *nix systems (FreeBSD, various distributions of Linux, etc.). I am considering buying from PC Club (www.pcclub.com), but if anybody else has any suggestions, I am willing to listen. The question I am more interested in, however, is whether I should go with an Intel or an AMD mobile processor. Intel seems to have some very nice features for their mobile line, but I have been unable to locate some good comparisons of the two. If somebody on the list has researched this item, I would love to hear from you. Thank you ahead of time. PS: I would really love an Apple system, but then I couldn't use it as test bed. Still, if someone can sell me on Mac OS X . . . PPS: I am sorry that I butchered the English language in the above message. I am hungry, and my brain is not working properly. -- Logan Kennelly ,,, (. .) --ooO-(_)-Ooo--
