yup, from 11.5% to 15% in 6 years.

Helping for sure. But no decision. I almost decided to buy the iMac I mentioned for $1299. Now the boss informs me that my aquarium/office room is changing.

Getting rid of all the clutter and my desk on the wall opposite my tank and putting in some kind of couch thingy but I also get a flatscreen, {albeit smaller sized}, for the wall in my little hide-a-way.

So, back to the laptop search. Guess I need a larger screen on it now, if my montitor is gone also. Unless I can hook it to the tv screen.

Larger screen on a laptop just means more weight, it's all that glass. The trend in our company three years ago was everyone wanted the new wide screen laptops and so we bought a lot. Now a few sore backs later everyone requests light 14" screens and they plug them into external flat screens that sit on their desks.

Trust me even if you have Herculean strength will regret lugging around a heavy laptop.
