MrBond:

That's another thing I'm looking for; something thats silent.  If it has a non 'M' type processor (pentium or athlon), won't it run louder?

HaRuMaN:

I use a Toshiba Satellite with a P4, and it's pretty quiet most of the time.

M3talhead:

If you're interested, I'm going to be selling my laptop soon. Its about 2 years old, but here are the specs anyways....

Dell Inspiron 8200
1.7Ghz P4
1GB of Ram
40GB HDD
DVD ROM
48x CD-R
Floppy
10/100 integrated NIC
2x USB ports
2x PCMCIA slots
GeForce 4 440 GO mobile graphics (64MB)
15" screen

XP Home

I'm going to ask some of the other guys on base first, but if nothing pans out, Its going to be available in the next few weeks. I'm going to ask about $900. Let me know if you're interested.

Do you work in education?  If so,  Dell offers more rebates for teachers and such. You can usually get another 6 or 12% off.
