The Best Laptop and the most powerful is this Laptop : http://www.nusystems.co.uk/buy.asp?p=0&g=80&b=0
The NU-AUDIO ULTRA is the ultimate laptop system for music production. Perfect for those who demand the highest possible performance from a mobile solution. The NU-AUDIO ULTRA is far more than a desktop replacement. It has scored higher than most desktop systems in our benchmark tests. This is yet another rock solid, reliable system based around a Clevo chassis - the D870P. This laptop is ideal for live gig situations, DJing, tutorial/demonstration, mobile session recording etc. anything where sheer power and reliability are essential.
Main Features
2 x 60GB 7200rpm 8MB cache silent hard drives configured in RAID 0 format
2GB DDR400 RAM
3.2 Pentium 4 Prescott Processor with 1MB cache
DVD +/- 4x Writer
17" Widescreen TFT
256MB ATI Radeon M11 Graphics Card
7-in-1 Memory Card Reader
3 x USB2.0 Ports
1 x FireWire Port
DVI output for external Digital Monitor
PS2 Port for Mouse
Numeric Keypad as on standard desktop keyboards
Gigabit LAN onboard
Standard Modem Port
Lithium-Ion 8 Cell Battery
Windows XP Home

3 Years Tech Support
The NU-AUDIO ULTRA really is the top of the range system with an unbelievable spec - hence the price. If you are looking for something more affordable then the NU-AUDIO NB PRO is now based around the same chassis and can be configured to suit a keener budget.
NUSYSTEMS' I.T. experts will configure the NU-AUDIO ULTRA for maximum audio performance, stripping the operating system of all the unnecessary tasks and needless graphical features. A few more tweaks to the computers registry files and the BIOS and the whole of your laptops resources are dedicated to what is most important - your music.
Any software or hardware that you purchase with your computer will be installed and set-up by our experts completely FREE of charge so that your system is ready to go straight out of the box. You won't need to waste any time reading manuals before you start recording and producing your first tracks with the NU-AUDIO ULTRA.
The NU-AUDIO ULTRA is fully expandable and upgradeable should you want to do so in the future. There's 3 USB ports, 1 FireWire port and 1 PCMCIA slot, so you'll have no problem connecting all your hardware devices. |

The Clevo is good, but one big drawback is that the firewire port is on the front edge; not good for live. Andrew (my partner in Voice of Cod) has a laptop with the firewire port in the same place, and we've lost audio on stage in the past when the cable has been nudged whilst dancing during the set. Not good.
The main advantages (for me) of a Centrino laptop are greatly extended battery life - which means I can do a whole 2-hour set off the battery and avoid earth-loops from the laptop's power supply - and very low noise, which means I can have it set up in the studio right next to my main monitor and have twice the computing power without adding any more noise.
