Hmmm the idea of a proper AMD64 in a laptop is appealing, I was looking at the Turion based machines but I am such a Thinkpad junkie I don't know if I can leave them.(That said the New Turion based HP's are looking very very nice at the moment)
My laptop is a proper AMD64... It's an Acer Aspire 1513LMi.
What sort of battery life do you get (I appreciate that these are more of a desktop replacement machine so that may be less important to you, but for me it's essential)
I get ~ 2 hours of normal usage, to ~ 20 or 30 mins of "cane the graphics card, processor and HDD" (i.e. playing 3d games does bad bad things to battery life :)
