Powerful laptops

[#1]

Hi all,

Many laptops are restricted to 2Gb RAM, and in these days of virtualisation, SAP NetWeaver Sneak Previews, etc. it's just not enough any more.

Does anyone know of any really powerful laptops? I'm thinking 64-bit and as much memory as possible. In my dream machine, I run 64-bit Linux as the host O/S, with a Windows XP 32-bit guest O/S for daily work, and VMWare instances for hosting NetWeaver on 64-bit Linux. The problem is to find something I can carry around that will be able to achieve this. I'm almost thinking of a blade server with a handle - I can get to a client's site and plug in a keyboard and monitor. That may be overkill though.

Cheers,

Darren
