I think I'm going to drop the PC laptop idea and get a Mac Book Pro. The battery life on them is supposedly way better. The case for the macbook pro is an aluminum shell carved out. I'm spending 2.25 grand for an Intel Core 2 Duo 2.66 GHz, 4 MB ram, 500GB HD, NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT 256 dedicated, 15 inch macbook pro.
2.25 grand for a computer that's considered average spec wise, cool. They're not terrible but for $2250 I'd expect something a little bit better than an $800 Sony my mom bought a year ago, minus the gpu, but it's OSX so what use are you going to put any gaming capability to lmfao
Cool thing about them is that you can go into a power saving mode which switches it to an integrated GPU. And you can partition the HD for windows and run windows separately (So the nasty windows viruses can't kill your computer). Once I found out I could run windows on it was what made me want one. The Mac OS is probably exactly what I need from a portable computer.

The only thing I don't like about it is that the battery isn't replaceable. I understand why they did it though, for more space in the laptop. I was a little less irked when they said you could go to an apple store and have it replaced.
From a company that charges $900 for a 1920x1200 LCD monitor and $1200 for 8GB of fucking RAM have fun missing a car payment for your battery replacement
I only have a grand saved up right now, but I think it will be worth the wait.
I would be more reluctant to spend that much money on a fashion statement shit laptop than I would be to take a rake, insert the jagged end into my asshole and then remove my digestive system through my anus while thrusting my dick into a pencil sharpener and then pulling my testicles out via my belly button
$1200 for 8GB of fucking RAM
