It came time to buy a laptop for some of my other ventures, GPS moving map, some ham radio work, etc.  I found a nice Gateway (yawn) at Best Buy...15" screen, Intel core duo 2.0 Ghz, 1 gig ram, 160 gig hard drive, Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 with up to 224 MB of Shared Video Memory (woohoo), 5.5 lbs., built in wireless, 4 USB ports, 1 Firewire, DVD RW, etc., and the installed OS is Vista Home Premium.

After getting all my other programs setup and running, I decided to try Liquid on the machine...I read Tomas' blurb on setting up Liquid on Vista...the installation went just fine.  I then gave it some video to work on (still only the C drive to work with, no second drive) - the thing works great!  No problems, yet, with the video, maybe when I get to working it hard it may hiccup, but not yet and now I can take Liquid with me!

Oh, yeah...the laptop was expensive...$499.99 !  Hehehe!
