I saw a secondhand ThinkPad X61s
I have a T60 now -- it is the best laptop I ever owned (and I had a few...) I can edit Ardour-Projects on it that I create on my QuadCore workstation and record with Guitarix with 8ms latency. So in short: I recommend it ;-)
Go the netbook route.
Are you sure, that you want to run apps like Ardour or complex Jack-sessions on a netbook-display?
Plus: with a netbook you pay for minimization of weight and size. Whatever the price may be: you get a stronger machine for the same money if you choose a standard-laptop and accept some 400 gramms and 10 centimeters more to be carried ;-)
And nothing beats 1400x1050 ;-)
I'm at a loss here, all these new processors, both the i-series and the atom (N-series), I have no idea how well they perform. I tried a few from friends, and they seem fast enough. Anyone here making music on a netbook? This would most certainly mean I would have to get a usb soundcard, hmmm :-( Any inputs would be greatly appreciated :-)
