Not really. I enjoy the portability, and with my current living area being tiny, it's much better than say a 6' tower and 72" flat screen, but I could do the same/better with a desktop PC. For that matter, I probably could build a PC right now for less that could do much more. *shrug* Or buy a Mac, and run XP through bootcamp. Though I hated the way the people at the Mac store treated me, so I'm not likely to ever buy a Mac.
I've never been one to care about the latest and greatest though. I wait until there's 10 new games I want before buying a console, buy used, and rarely run the highest settings even if I can. I play ADOM and Dwarf Fortress as well as newer games, and still play my old DOS and Win95/98 stuff as well. The reasons I want to get a more powerful laptop are Dragon Age, Gothic 3, and Battlefield Bad Company 2.
