Paul, Watch the CompUSA, BestBuy, and CircuitCity ads. I saw a $600 unit at each available at before dawn on the Friday after Thanksgiving. These laptops had 14 or 15 inch TFT screens, 256 meg memory, 30-40 gig hard drives, and 2.1+ mHz chips.
I've used my personal laptop on work trips to store digital photos. It's an old Celeron 400 chip machine with a 6 gig hard drive. I've got 384 meg memory on board and run Paint Shop Pro 6.0 on it. It works just fine! The laptop is a great way to go, although I'd put another 256 megs of memory on it... just in case. Regards, Bob S.
