    I might end up with a Dell Studio 17, a Vaio FW, Acer 6930 or something else.

    If the New macBook Pros are good, then i might splash the cash and get one of those.

    EDIT: lol, i have 900 posts with 1 bar of rep! thats so bad.. I really need to get a laptop

    yeah, I would like to stay away from the big brands, thats why I;m klooking at the whitebook, m15x, or voodoopc, but who knows if they;ll ever release a 15in.

    and I know, thats why I gave you some rep the other day. :p

    A voodoo would be awesome, but it looks like HP doesnt care about them anymore. 1 release in a whole year? Come on!

    thanks for that link shyster, I wil check it out.
    It looks like I need to replace the Bios chip with a new one.

    definitely do not go for a Voodoo, they are not as good as you read in their hype. They have terrible service, and they are very unhelpful. All of my support has been through Xotic Pc, Rjtech and Sager, because they actually respond and they are helpful.
    KN, Xotic, SAGER and RJTECH have much better deals and proven reliability and service/support.
    Trust me, as the owner of three voodoo's, dont buy from them

    dv600t
    dv4t
    asus F8Va
    asus m50mv B1
    Cleavo m860tu
    m15x, though I cancelled that one before it shipped.

    I've still got the asus F8va series, it.s not a bad lappy, but can't really even play cod4 on it, too many CIs.

    My 2 choices are basically do I order the m15x again, and just wait the month and a half for it to get shipped to me, or do I get the Nagamaki from Killernotebooks.com.

    Atleast I've sort of narrowed it down. :)

    Oh, and thanx for the tip Tron, but you don't think that now that they make their own units that maybe the quality has gotten any better? And now that their owned by HP (who was number 1 in CS last year) maybe their support is better?
