Which DELL one were you considering?

Their XPS series is quite powerful but I'll tell you right now, they're HEAVY.

i figure your priorities should be focused on RAM (1GB minimum) and a decent dedicated video engine.

second, a wide-screen is a must, no matter what size you're willing to pay for.

lastly, with this generation of CPU's whether it's a Intel or AMD you should opt for a low voltage unit regardless of the two manufacturers. the speed is secondary when considering either CPU unless you genuinely are gonna be heavily multi-tasking. just MHO.

i don't know, i'm really liking the new HP's for the price. i currently own a 3 yr. old Vaio. whoopity dooooo!

I use DELL XPS M140. Let me tell you, it doesn't allow me to capture online audio. The bastards
