Hello all. I'm looking for a laptop which will mainly be used for my comp sci studies. I'd prefer a long battery life, but an outlet around here is never too far away, so it isn't a deciding priority for me. I'll be listening to a lot of music too, so, although headphones are probably better anyway, I'd like to have some decent speakers as well (and a large hard drive wouldn't hurt either). Lastly, sometimes my floor has small LANs, so I'd like a decent vid card for that, however the games are not that demanding (Heroes of Newerth, Source games, Company of Heroes, much older games too).

Thanks for any help.
