Unfortunately, I think I am going to have to give up on the AMD64 piece for now and just settle for everything else in a HP NC8000. My wife has a NC3000 from work and it is a very nice machine, so I am ok with the NC8000. P.S. - my desire for the pointing stick is born of using ThinkPads for many years, and I would certainly get a ThinkPad instead of the NC8000 if they were anywhere close to one another in price... --=20 Mike perl -e 'print unpack("u","88V]N=3D&%C=3D\"!I;F9O(&EN(&AE861E
