Great Recording Laptop (by todays standards...)

if later you're planning to switch to PT, please use a mac, My desktop XP with PT sucked, while my XP laptop is just fine.

...not to mention I just want a sweet new laptop!

Fair enough! I would hate to use most laptop's internal soundcards for mixing on headphones though, and most interfaces (aside from the Mbox Micro?) inhibit the portability, with their PS and other things..

Well, maybe for the coffee shop, you'd be fine, I definitely wouldn't trust my laptop near the shitter
