I'm running laptop-only, and for my next laptop I'm going for something 

smaller and lighter than what I have now. I've narrowed it down to either 

the Dell XPS 1330 or the Sony Vaio SZ series. The problem in choosing is 

that I like the Sony better, but I can't get one with the faster, "Santa 

Rosa" chipset unless I get Vista. Dell will sell me one with XP (and with 

"crapware" removed), so I'm leaning towards it.
