I am also looking at the Think pad with the NVIDIa GeForce FX Go 5200, guess it does not matter if it has a P4 or a Centrino proccessor does it. I do not have a good feeling about Hp's Toshibas or the Alienware systems, if you look at Alienware they all have the Intel Etreme cards. I am looking for a well rated laptop for my deployment to Iraq. Toughbooks are not rated well either.
