Shauk, I know that you do a lot of music. Are you planning on doing any recording with the laptop or just remixes and playback?

I purchased an HP dv9500 with two internal 7200RPM drives. One for the OS and storage (samples) and the other for recording and playback. But I use mine for live keyboard performance (with a PreSonus Firebox for sound). Also 2GB RAM. I spent a bit more than $799, but I'll bet that you can get a similar laptop configuration for much less now.

Two (internal) hard drives in music is a MUST. So is a TI Chipset firewire port if you plan on doing "pro" level soundcards.
