Plenty fast for Photoshop and video apps. It runs two monitors (built-in 17" plus a 22" CRT) when I'm home at the office along with a full size keyboard and mouse. Built-in WiFi and Bluetooth. I get close to 3 hours on a battery when I'm on the road. Plus no worries about viruses, worms, or spyware.

Also nice having *nix under the hood for things like running rsync for nightly backups of my servers and stuff like that.
It can also take a huge cup of coffee dumped all over it and still keep ticking... just a little stickier.....
