Looking at myself lately, I come to realise that I have not actually touched my computer for 2 or 3 days in a row. My GPRS bill is rising fast though, but the facts are that I'm becoming a lot more of a mobile user lately.
Considering this, I realised i need to get myself a laptop. The one we have as a family PC to surf the web wirelessly is a pretty old Toshiba M30 (Pentium-M 1.7/512MB RAM/60GB 4200rpm HDD/GF FX5200/15.4" @ 1280x800) which does everything well except it's battery life is 30 minutes at most in energy-saving mode.
And if I'm going to be buying a laptop, I will definitely use it a lot in the uni, so battery life is a very important factor. Last year I was droopling on the Apple MacBook, but its 2kg weight and a mere 2-3 hours battery life is just not what I'm looking for, so I decided to go for the Sony VAIO VGN-SZ5MRN/B that comes in at a pricey 61000 RUR or $2400. But for the money you get pretty much anything you'd ever wish. It only lacks a pair of 8800 Ultras in SLI ;)
Planning on buying something is not buying it, so I'll see.
