I have a HP DV7 with a 17 inch screen 500 GB HD 6 GB Ram with an HDMI and mini Subwoofer. its about 11 months old but the newer ones are very similar...You can easily get 6 tables up

go mac and don't look back!!!!

Ya im in the same boat getting a bit sick of my 15' screen lol. I hate Macs tho...Maybe its just a preference thing but I just cant get used to them.

Um seriously enough with these posts. Poker programs do not take much system use, use your head................

This is obv personal opinion, but having a 17" laptop is kinda defeating the purpose of having a laptop. It's too big. A laptop is suppose to be small and light, so it's easy to bring with you. Are you really going to play poker that many different places? I play poker on my desktop, and do other stuff with my laptop. When I travel I do play on the laptop, but I don't like it, but since it's so seldom, I don't give a fuck.

laptops are a MUST for any poker player who doesn't prefer to sit in one spot for hours on end with only 5 min breaks to be away from a desktop... mobility is definitely key.

laptop >>>>>>>>>>>>&g t;>>>>>>> desktop for poker

Laptops are cool in that u can take a dump and not miss hands and with a wireless mouse u could even take a bath while playing a table or 2

I bought the Dell Studio 17 for about $750 a few months ago:

17in screen

500 GB hard drive

4GB memory

Intel core 2 duo processor

Works amazingly well for grinding.

Dell or Toshiba

I hear ya bro, my wife took the toilet seat off, so now I have to stand up when I pee.

I play on a 17" Alienware M17x. You can fit 9 tables with no overlap. It's a lil heavy tho.

How is this one?

^^ Ignore this. You'll be getting Windows 7 anyway if you go PC so doesn't really matter but Vista is far from garbage. Had some compatibility issues early but has been a sweet OS for a long time.
