I'm been looking around and was looking for a AMD laptop but I can't hardly find a Uk vendor that does them. There mainly all INTEL systems I would go with a INTEL system but I wouldn't mind an AMD anyways I want to sell this rig.

As I want something small and mobile and a laptop will do me good only seem to play games like Diablo 2 L.O.D. On this rig so a lappy should be able to play that at least. I've seen 1 Advent Laptop http://www.pcworld.co.uk/martprd/st...age=Product&sku=689379&fm=1&sm=1&tm=undefined

Excellent amount of RAM, Decent speed processor but shared ATi X200 graphics memory.

If You play Diablo 2.. Intergrated Graphic should be more that adequate.
With my intel GMA950, works wonders. It even Runs World of Warcraft, (low settings mind you)

It all depends what the laptop will be used for. But if it is for work, I would suggest intergrated Intel, saves battery life and for older games is fine.

Also, right now, Intel are the best for Mobility.
I've always loved AMD, but for Notebooks, Intel is where you should look.

What kind of Budget were you looking at?
 
Hp business class laptops are nice, I own a nx9420 and i belive that the AMD version is a nx9425 or somthing. But my prefs. were a full keyboard and 17inch screen, x1600 256mb and the t2500 2.0.
 
My budget is around £400-500 if I can stretch it to £500 that is I'm currently in the middle of spreading the word about this PC (see sig). I'm hoping to get £150 maybe £200 if I can it will come complete with XP Pro SP2 as it's registered to the motherboard.

So that should add an extra £50 to it I reckon £200 is a decent price for this system. Nice and fast, good overclocker, great amount of memory, decent storage & not so bad g.card I suppose.

There's this Toshiba Intel Laptop for £450:

Then there's this one for £500 comes with 128mb sperate graphics memory:
