[BNM] 17" laptop recomendations

[Antony Jones]

Just saw that laptop - if you're going to run Windows on it it's going
to be pretty slow.

I have a D620 / Core2 Duo 1.67Ghz and even with Linux on it it doesn't
exactly blind me with speed (although it's fine for my needs). That one
is only 1.83Ghz.

Just a warning!
