Good points.

Unfortunately I don't think I can swing the duo comp setup, and my current desktop arrangement is to say the least, primitive.
So basically, while I know that it'll become obselete before the first chime of Windows XP I still want a high end beast because I'm probably not going to update my hardare setup significantly for a long long time.
As with weight, well, lets just say that after dragging dozens of books around, my back's totally ruined anyhow. I'm a pretty strapping lad, I'm not too concerned about it, though I intend to drink lots more milk in the future to stave off bone deformities and such.
Also, I'm doing Arts, History major.
Job? er.
PhD, then maybe...

EDIT: Another consideration I just remembered is that I need an 802.11 b or g WiFi card to get onto the University network. Apart from longer battery life, this seems to be the only reason to get Centrino over a meaty P4.
