Sorry if this post has been done several times before. I used the search feature, but didn't get enough info.

I 12 table with PT/PAhud/postgreSQL running at the same time. I intend to use the laptop pretty much exclusively for pokah. Don't need any extras, just enough to 12 table smoothly. Budget is whatever it takes to get the job done right.

I have the amd turion dual chipset on my laptop its perfect for 6 tables(I dont play more then that it probaly would handle it easily), but for an extra couple hundred if I were you I would get a core2duo.

Basically, get a core2duo, an "ok" video card with tv-out(s-video) 2 gigs of ram(must), a good wireless network card, and a decent 17" moniter and youll be very happy.

I'd recommend a 17" WUXGA screen on a business class notebook. WUXGA is the highest resolution screen you can get, and I'm not too sure how it would work with 12-tabling.
Big bucks though.

Heres a cheaper setup, although not business class. Still a lot better that the consumer level notebooks you'll get at Best Buy. If you don't care about durability or quality there are probably better deals out there. Check out Dells business line too.
