Looking for a 12-14" Business Laptop

[alimoalem]

Alright, so I settled on a T400. P8400, 2GB RAM, 160GB HDD 5400rpm, card reader, and 6-cell battery. Pretty basic as far as T400's go, but it has everything I need. Came out to $704.65.

Thanks for your help everybody!

But honestly, I'm leaning towards the Latitude E4300/E6400 right now, for several reasons. It comes with a standard 3 year warranty, E4300 is 3.3lbs and the E6400 is 4.x lbs (vs the 5.8lbs of the T400), the Outlet has a lot more to choose from, and better deals can usually be found with the Dells.

I'm just waiting for a good coupon before I jump.

T400 weighs in at 4.7 or 4.8 pounds. Make sure the weights are compared properly. That is without the power brick... what about the Dell?
