RE: best laptop for an errant dba?

I am using my HP Laptop zv5340US about 2 yrs old ( AMD 64 3400+ with 100 gb HDD and 1.2 Gigs RAM ). Fantastic 15.4 inch screen. I just luv it.

I have WIndows Vista RC-1 with Oracle 10G (10.2.0.2), TOAD 8.6.0.38, AllFusion DM 7.1, PowerDVD. The smaller partition has Ubuntu UNIX on VMWare :-)

This is my great workhorse..but a little loud on the fan side though

Thanks and have a good day.

Subject: OT: best laptop for an errant dba?

Choices of laptops out there are mind boggling!

What laptops are you using that gave you good return for the money? Reliable and pleasant to work with?

I am thinking of buying laptop, dividing it in Linux and Windows, put Orace db on Linux, dba tools on windows (TOAD ,ERd) and use it as my main workhorse.

Thanks a lot for your thoughts.
