Actually the underlying mouse driver system on OS X supports up to 32 buttons on the mouse. Personally I use a Microsoft USB two-button mouse with track wheel. bill.manuel@xxxxxxxxxx wrote:

I hate to be the Mac
pusher....(well, no I don't)
I would at least consider a Macintosh - Powerbook/iBook.
Mac OS X is an excellent platform for Java development (and
development in general).
The G4 processor is very energy efficient and you will find that you
can get 5+ hours of battery life on new Apple laptops.

After reading my original post I forgot to list an app server
running too, probably
WebLogic 8 or 9.
I plan to get 1 gig or ram but anymore than that gets really
pricey.
My biggest hang-up on the Centrino is that for the price of a
1.6 to 2.0 GHz, I could get a standard
HT 3.0 GHz processor for about the same money. But it sounds
like a Pentium M 1.6 is fairly
comparable in speed to a HT 3.0. Not sure how Intel pulled that
off.

We're not using Centrino, per se (our policy prohibits wireless
devices on
the laptops we order), but we're running Pentium M 1.6GHz
laptops with 2GB
of RAM, and they are comparable in speed and performance to
our
3GHz
minitowers (also 2GB of RAM, SATA disks, etc.). We run a 18,000
class java
app in WebSphere, ClearCase, Lotus Notes, WSAD, DB2, and
assorted other
miscellaney without any problem. Probably the worst thing about
it is that
the disk subsystem is slower than the towers, so startup times
are longer
for the apps, but once they're running, you're good.
We ordered both towers and laptops for some of our senior guys
just because
of that concern, and all of them have pretty much abandoned the
towers due
to the fact that the performance is so similar.

Sorry, I don't have any free gmail accounts to offer :-0
Does anyone know how the Centrino processor based laptops
perform for
typical java development work? i.e. running and IDE, a DB
server,
ant
(cranking away at unit tests), maybe a couple other apps
running.
If you have any links that compare non-centrino to centrino
performance
that would help too.
Thanks,
-Matt
