[TriLUG] Dear lazyweb^WTriLUG, Laptop suggestions?

> Two big things to do for better battery life: (1) install an SSD, and (2) lower the screen brightness.

On that Dell, I am convinced that most of the power goes to the built-in 
hair dryer that continuously blows hot air out of the side.

I will be happy when we can finally replace the power-hungry Intel CPU's 
with something a little more miserly like ARM.
