Rep Power: 4 Ghost is on a distinguished road
New Laptop/Desktop Replacement

I'm looking to get a power laptop, I've been holding off on getting a laptop cause they always seem to lack the power I so enjoy/need (Windows haha). So my question is if anyone has seen any good deals or can recommend a good powerful laptop for anywhere between $1,000 to $2,500.

Must have:
  • 17+ Inch Screen
  • Full Keyboard
  • 2+ GB Ram
  • 7200 RPM Hard Drive
  • 40+ GB Hard Drive (I have externals I'll use for storage)

I'll mostly be using this laptop for Web App development, but like most of you I'm sure, I always have 100 different things going on while in my IDE.

I'm not replacing my desktop, so I dont need everything (storage) I'm just working out of town and on job sites 4+ days a week and need some power I can take with me on the road. (Notice, I always have an office to setup in so the little 15 inch screens are not a favorite of mine, I will never have this laptop on my lap.)

I was looking into the Dell XPS M2010.... Thanks again for all your opinions and advice.
