j8ear makes some good points.

i got my powerbook with the applecare warranty so i've got a few years of safety margin. i suppose i'd buy an extended warranty on any laptop over $1000.

i've always used desktops - the PB is my first laptop. i use it _everywhere_ and is probably the best technology (gadget) product i've ever bought. i can break away from work (i work from home) and get stuff done at the coffee shop or wherever.

to j8ear's point, a desktop is more powerful at less price. i wouldn't expect to do much gaming on a laptop but you could get by or have tons of fun with mame.

anyway, veered way off topic. good luck in you search for the right laptop for you.
