Any hints, tips, or specs to look at for getting a lappy?

This would be an excellent choice (i7-based, very reliable), but it's going to cost you more than a no-name laptop:

Street price in the US about $1,500 (for the i7 model.) But you definitely want to increase the RAM to take advantage of its 64-bit OS, and that may not be cheap.
This one comes with the i7 and 6 gigs of RAM at $1,899.99 retail.
