Im in the market for a laptop computer.
I have never had one before, and my current desktop was built by me.
So I have no idea what brand is a good one to go w/
I need basically what everyone needs/wants:
good battery
easy to carry around (im in college so in a backpack)
I would need wireless and non-wireless networking capabilites.
I have my current desktop hooked up to my HDTV, so if i could do that w/ a laptop that would be great. what about a normal monitor?
I also have some klipsch 4 spks + sub, would I be able to hook that up and get use of them?
A decent size HD
I would want a cd burner.
I don't play any games, so if it could play some it is just a bonus.
I would possible be open to a Win or Mac, altough my only experience is w/ Win so I would probably go that route. I don't want this to turn into a wein vs mac thread, but if someone could point out or give me a link to the differences that would be great.
thank you!!!

oh and price isnt decided yet. just resonable. I dont need the best, but dont want the worst.
somehwhere just above a mid-level would be good.
I just need it for internet, winamp, and word pros.
but I do need it to last me throughout college
