    Hi I have been looking at buying a Notebook for a while now and
    have been carefully researching the Toshiba M3, at least on paper,
    and some reviews it seems to fit my needs and the application ill
    give it (Carrying on a backpack to school everyday, quite some photohop,
    some home recording and possibly home video editing), My specs would be

    2.0 Ghz Pentium M
    1 Gb Ram
    60Gb 7200Rpm
    Geforce 6600TE
    Dvd Burner
    SXGA screen
    Large battery
    Lock

    So along came the new M4 and I began taking a hard look at it, so
    its basically a tabletized M3 as someone saidd in another post so my point is
    with a similar config (with the 80Gb 5400rpm HD instead) the price
    difference is just 150 dollars so, for my usage, is it worth to
    sacrifice the $150 and carry the extra pound the Tablet weighs??

    We have a tablet site that might get you better return.

    www.tabletpcreviewspot.com

    The M4 is the best porformance tablet on the market, but I can't tell if you really want the tablet features though.
