One thing you may want to check out are the specs on the hard drive 
provided
with your new laptop, especially if you are planning on doing multi-track
recording/looping.

Up until the last few months, laptops typically shipped with 3200 RPM 
drives
(not great), but now many have 5400 RPM drives (better).

So I would check the detailed specs on your new laptop to make sure you are
getting a good hard drive.

Also, most of the new laptops have Firewire, but you might also look for 
USB
2.0 for flexibility. I just noticed the new Dell laptops now have USB 2.0,
which is great.
