Do a search for ADK laptops. They're pro audio laptops that aren't sold too expensively. Why I like them is because you have the option of buying the computer without an OS and saving 100 bucks. You also get all the computer sound attenuation included.
The standard for laptop and audio seems to be Intel's Core 2 Duo.
I'm considering buying one of the 14" laptops and triple booting XP, OS x (hackintosh style) and Ubuntu (or debian, haven't decided).

Greetings,
I'll be in the market for a better laptop later this year, and I need
some specific features.
I'd like to purchase a machine strong enough to handle my work with the
AVSynthesis software. My desktop boxes include 2.0 and 2.4 GHz CPUs,
with 3 and 2 GB memory, and they are not powerful enough for some of the
combined OpenGL/Csound realtime processing. I'll need a machine with a
very fast CPU (preferably 64-bit), large HD support, large RAM capacity,
and accelerated 3D-capable graphics. The on-board sound will be replaced
by an external device, preferably *not* a USB audio device. I want very
high-quality audio, and eventually I'll need support for multichannel
output. The display doesn't have to be humongous, just very clear.
At this time price is no object, because I don't have the money for it
now anyway. :) But I'm interested in the range of makers and prices
that might appear for such a machine. So, what suggestions from the
LAUyers ?
Best,
dp
