which processor are you ordering?
only suggestion i have would be to upgrade to one of the newer processors (1.7-2.0 dothan). you will want it in the long run.
ive pretty much hashed out many of the details i just need a lil help with some stuff.. ive decided to order the Dell 600m.. ive heard nothing but good things about it and the good battery life will be good for me.. i will be a freshman in college and i will use the laptop for papers, mp3s, the occasional movie, research, and internet surfing for the most part.. i do no play alot of games.. heres is what i have no so far..
