I have plans to purchase a new Dell laptop..

Need some suggestions on which laptop is better... Latitude vs Precision.

I have been using Latitude C600 for the past 6 years with no problems. I need to move to a better laptop since this one has few limitations like.. cannot have >512 MB RAM, cannot upgrade the video card etc..

Just curious to know how Dell Precision laptop is ? The latest Latitudes have better configurations.

I run quite a number of big Enterprise applications and databases, on my laptop.. and mobility is my main criteria.

Thanks in advance..

To my knowledge Precision notebooks are workstation class machines. They use professional graphics cards, offer higher end options, and cost significantly more.
From what you've said, I see no reason to get a Precision (but others are more familiar with them than I) and I would just get a loaded Latitude. Unless you need like specific 3D rendering capabilities, I don't think you need a Precision.
