Finally picked up a new laptop

hplaptop Well I found it was about time to get a new laptop so I went on a spending spree today. Picked up a new HP DV5-1004NR. It's a pretty decent laptop for the price tag, and it certainly has some nice features included. It was mandatory I get a 64-bit cpu and I liked the AMD64 better than the Intel line. This laptop sports 4gb of memory as well so it'll give me some space to let my apps breath so to speak. Disk space is loaded, and although it comes with Vista, I've installed VirtualBox vm. I'm installing Ubuntu 8.04 right now and will be installing XP as well. Overall I'm pretty pleased with the purchase. We shall see how well this holds up.
