Right people I have £2200 in the back burner. Which much to the missus's dismay is being spunked on a shiny new laptop.
I am in the UK what do you recommend ?. I have been looking at th Hi-Grade Notino 6700 - 1500 - 1
Centrino 1.7
Xp Pro
80 Gb HD
1024 DDR
DVD Burner (not sure what type)
I am not interested in a P4, must be a centrino.
Thanks for your time.

£2200 should get youa decent slab .. try micromart and TCR micro anvika etc but always haggle with those guys be prepared to walk away and come again another day 
They sometimes have bargains in but generally the mags are better.

Buy refurb from work??Corned beef is now made to a higher standard than at any time in history.
The electronic components of the power part adopted a lot of Rubycons. -
I really want top spec so I could buy from them but it would not be what I am after. I can get from work on their discount the IBM T40 for £1800 - thats £3400 on dabs but the spec is worse than the notino. Do they charge all this extra cash just cause it's an ibm ?

Dunno about those sold in the UK but if I had that kind of cash for a laptop I'd be getting a Sony Vaio, one of the little ones. Onboard WiFi (802.11g now I believe) as well as a host of other onboard features make it hard to beat (like FireWire).

The latest vaio I have seen in the UK is the PCGz1RSP. I go on holiday to Oz in a month so I could get it at the airport for £1700.
It looks really good but only has 14inch screen, 512mb of ram and a 16mb graphic card also no dvd writer and it is 802.11b and not g.
But as you say they look really cool.
