Re: Dell 700m
Had friends who had them. I thought they were pretty nice. Extremely poor quality though. My dads work bought a couple dozen for testing. Few lasted more than 3 months (they never moved or left the testing stations) without having to be replaced. But... they were put under heavy stress conditions and full load 24/7 there.
The few others I've known have liked them. I enjoyed using them. It had the best display I've ever seen on a dell. The weight and size was what first attracted me to the unit.
If you can find one for around $500-$600, I would say go for it. But don't pay much more than that.

I used mine for 8-12 hours a day for two years and it ran like a champ. I carried it back and forth to work and flew with it several times. I didn't have a single problem with it until I sent it back in to Dell to have the keyboard replaced :-p. The only weakness with the system is the integrated graphics.
