Thomas,
You should also consider the Dell Inspiron laptops. I have an Inspiron 7000
with the 15" active matrix display, P-II 400MHz, 128MB ram, ATI rage w/4MB
ram, and DVD. The Inspirons also have the S-video connector as well as USB
and the other usual connectors. It comes with the decoding software for
DVD. I love mine. This model is pricy though. You can order this model or
the 3500 with slower P-II or Celerons and smaller screen displays to reduce
costs. For more info, go to http://www.dell.com .

We are intent on acquiring a laptop that will read and decode DVD-ROM &
CD-ROM disks and communicate both the video and the Dolby Surround audio to
a
big screen home theater installation. We hope to display screens from
educational CD-ROMS and some PowerPoint presentations. This appears very
complicated to the uninitiated.
The IBM ThinkPad i 1478 appears to fit the bill....
