it'd be cool if it was as easy to build your own laptop as it was to build a desktop, but as far as i can tell, it isn't.

Because the Pentium M is supposed to be a better/more efficient chip. I don't really know specs though.

i did a lot of research before buying my toshiba. mostly i compared Toshiba m45 vs. the Sony Vaio and Dell Laptops.
Of those three, I found Dell to be well reviewed, Toshiba as well and Vaio almost as well. I heard the Vaio was more noisy, it is also more pricey.
Ultimately I went with the Toshiba M45 because it was about 200 dollars cheaper than the Vaio, and Dell does not offer the Centrino chip with higher than a 433mhz frontside bus. Toshiba uses newer chips and actually, for the money, you get more Bang for your Buck compared to a customizable Dell.
but yeah i'll review my new machine later this week when it gets here!

so i got my new laptop last week and now i'm laying in bed posting via wireless internet access while watching pee wee's big adventure in th ebackground. So far, i am totally satisfied with this new toy. a techinogical marvel indeed with a huge display and a wicked fast cpu. My tracks in Ableton LIve that used to run my old processor up to 60 to 70 percent now only push the green bar up to 15 percent or less. no hanging, crashing, or spontaneous restarting. i can even run dual monitors for added workspace.
so, in summary, the Toshiba m45+s331 is thus far proving to fully live up to my expectations. and it is worty of consideration if you are still looking for tremendous portable computing power at a very fair price!LAZY_TITLE

Get an IBM Thinkpad. The build quality is excellent. If you're thinking of moving your laptop around, this is really important.
Never buy a cheap, shitty laptop. The plastics will quickly crack and break. Better to get a slightly older, second hand Thinkpad than some fly-by-night product.
