Sadly, the battery will not. That's the issue with laptops, they eventually become semi-portable.

And to answer the thread, yes I have an HP DV1000.

Core Duo 1.86Ghz
1.5 GB DDR2 400
Intel GMA 945 Graphics

Running: Windows 7 Ultimate/Ubuntu 10.04/OSX Leopard
 
Yes. I bought an ASUS G50VT gaming laptop last year from Best Buy. Its been very reliable to me <3 it was my first laptop purchase, and my business will be with ASUS forever. I play games with it, and it runs a tad hot, so I think I'm going to invest in a cooling pad for it next so I can rest a bit easier. Whenever the proc starts running above 130 I get nervous.

4GB of RAM, 320GB hdd, Nvidia 9800MGS gpu. Shipped with Vista Home Premium, upgraded to Ultimate last Christmas.
 
Acer Extensa, the only thing I can complain about is the tiny battery..
And the lack of an appealing design..

I still love it. <3
 
Dell Latitude D430, which I've had three years. In that time it's had two motherboards, three hard drives, two AC adapters, two screens, three keyboards and four of those little nipple mouse things.

And i think I've broken it again DX
 
Apple MacBook pro. I bought it about 3 years ago. Looking to upgrade at some point to a Mac based htpc, but not for a little longer. I haven't found much that I can't do with this lappy for a while now, so i'm happy with it.
 
I use my old Acer laptop whenever I'm on the go really. Had it for about four years now.

When I'm at home, which is when I really use my computer, I prefer using the desktop in my room.

I might look into getting a netbook though.
 
Yup. Mine's a 3-year-old white MacBook that I bought from my brother for $250. It has a 32-bit Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 2 GB of RAM, a skimpy 120GB hard drive, and a dual-layer DVD burner. It's not a very good machine for post-2007 gaming or heavy-duty audio visual production, but it's good enough for the work I do on it.

Yup, I just got a MacBook Pro as a graduation gift since it's almost become a necessity to have a laptop as a university student.

Specs:
2.4GHz Core 2 Duo
4GB 1067MHz DDR3 RAM
250 GB HDD
Nvidia GeForce 320M 256MB Graphics

I've also got an iMac however that is not so great for carry around. xD

And HOW MUCH was that? Seriously, how much? I have the same specs, except it's an ATI Radeon and 320 GB HDD. Made by Gateway.

Why I hate Apple: Big prices, low quality. And yes I have had one for more than 6 months.
 
13" MacBook Pro Mid-2010

2.4 GHZ
4 GB RAM
250 GB HD
Intel Core 2 Duo

And no, I don't care if you hate Apple, so stop bugging me if you're jealous.
 
Acer laptop right here. Its been with me since forever but its starting to freeze... and all those complicated computer problem stuff that happens to old sad laptops...

>____>

~$1090ish after student discount. I really don't give a crap what you think because, A) it's not low quality. B) I'll pay just about any price to have a Mac OS machine rather than windows, and don't give me crap about hackintosh.

Besides, the only true argument I've seen against mac's is the price tag, and well frankly, I don't give a flying whoop about that.
 
Yeah... Toshiba Special Edition, was around $600. We asked for a discount for being regulars so they took ~$300 off.

How old is that laptop? The RAM seems pretty slow, and DDR2 is kinda old.
 
i have an iBuypower Battalion 101 CZ-10 Ultra for pretty much daily use and medium gaming
 
Yeah, I have a Toshiba Pro Satellite L450D-13G (which I must have namedropped about ten times already here), which I got for my birthday a few weeks ago. I'm absolutely in love with it.

Before that, I had a six-year-old Dell Latitude D600 given to me by my dad because he thought I wouldn't be able to access the internet on it as our Wi-Fi had a security password. Shortly after encountering this obstacle, I managed to find out what the password was and had access to the internet for a year and a half without them knowing it. Last December, it died of old age and I had to rely on my iPod until July for all my internet usage.

It was horrible and now that I have this I don't know how I put up with it.
 
Just bought my own laptop after years of bumming off of my boyfriend! LOL

It's a Toshiba L505 and it's good for everyday stuff. Core i3, 4GB RAM (upgradeable to 8 GB), 500 GB hard drive, Windows 7 64 bit, 1366 * 768 resolution. Speakers are horrible but can do with headphones. There was a better version of this laptop with harman kardon speakers, but didn't really want to pay the extra $150 just for sounds. Decided to get usb speakers instead.
