My Dad is using that exact same laptop. Its great.

PROS:
- Big screen size
- Lots of HD space (2 80GB's)
- Good brand name

CONS:
- Video chipset
- Low memory to start -> You gotta upgrade to 1GB
- Not very "portable" -> Its gonna be hard to find a case
- Pricey

The RAM is already at 2GB.

How many lb is it?

Mac powerbooks or macbooks are great and extremely reliable.

 

[M4A1]

I don't want a Mac.
