Laptop Speed Comparisons

Hi AnandTech, hop[e you all can help.

I currently own a Sony Vaio K 15 Laptop, upgraded the drive to 80 Gb annd the Ram to 1 Gb, It runs a Pentium 4 2.8 Desktop processor (x86 Family 15 Model 2 Stepping 9 GenuineIntel ~2791 Mhz)

I am looking to upgrade to a new Laptop, I don't mind Heavy Laptops, as I need Desktop Processing speed / power.

Here is my problem. I bought the Sony with the Pentium 4 Desktop because I wanted the fastes most Powerful Laptop for the Money.

But for my next purchase, Sony isn't making any Desktop processor Laptops

I don't know anything about the current choices of duo core processors, L2 caches, AMD, etc.

Are the duo cores as fast as the older P4 desktop Laptops?

The Laptop will be used to creat websites, show allot of full screen photos and DVDs to Clients (and websites) I use PhotoShop for Graphics as well as doing some Video production.

Looking for 17 in screen, at least 1 Gb Memory (2 GB better) a
t least 80-100 Gb Hard drive, WiFi, and a DVD Burner, and as much batterly life as possible, though that is not a major concern.

Bottom line, for around $2500, who makes the best/most powerful laptop that fits this recipe?

Thanks to all . .
