7200 is simply a bit faster, it "needs" more battery though.

you almost don't have 7200rpm HD in laptop, because those get very hot. There are some of them but most used are the 5k rpm

The only good thing about laptops is the ability to go out wardriving.
I don't find anything good about laptops, too expensive..

You're getting ripped off at that price and you'll barely be able to play games on it. Trust me, i've used many

Mines 2.33 & 2GB RAM and I can run most new-releases such as CoH, World in Conflict, ETWQ with decent FPS but I think I'm just scraping it. I doubt I'd be able to run them with lower specs. If you want to use this laptop for gaming then you won't have much luck my Slovenian friend.

immoo 6 Oct 2007, 14:16
i wont use it only for games.. I am studying as an architecht.. and i will need it for many other reasons :)

If you're not planning on running games then should be alright, but I'm not very knowledgeable otherwise.

Talk to Toss about it, he knows his notebooks.
