Always upgraded my laptop around every two years and this may i bought a new Sony Vaio with 17" X-Black screen its awesome!! i love it and take everywere with me 24/7
I still use my desktop for some stuff, such as online gamin as i play a lot of halflife, the sony runs halflife well as it has a dedicated 256mb ATI graphics card and a 1gb DDR memory but i can't get to grips with the keyboard for online gaming, and it makes your elbows ache if using for online gaming for some strange reason?
(plus my desktop has an old 21" crt monitor which i love )
