Apparently. Unless you want a real unobtanium notebook that costs $3grand, but that's usually due to the price of a $1000 i7 extreme edition cpu and $600+ Solid State Drive.
You can get a high end laptop for about $1200-1400 these days which is quite impressive. My mid range gaming laptop cost me $1650 2 years ago, now you could get a laptop with a gpu 3x faster for $500 cheaper.
I think his other major problem is his insistence on getting a job in scientific programming with a PhD in Biochemistry. Not even being able to find a job for 45k with a PhD in Biochemistry is an absolutely ridiculous notion to me. I honestly think he's just doing it wrong.
American schools have probably some of the best programs for gifted students. It's a rather large dichotomy between the average student and the gifted one. If a student is truly gifted, they have the opportunity to excel in the USA's schooling system. It's the average mediocre student who suffers.
For example, the public High School that I attend in NYC is considered one of the best in the world, having graduated seven Noble prize winners and 6 Pulitzer prize winners. Almost all of my peers from that school have finished college and are well to do intelligent adults.

Alienware is releasing an M11x notebook, 11.6" screen with one of the new Arrandale processors and Nvidia GT335M along with 6.5 hours of battery life.
You're missing an i7 920XM, a GTX280M, 8gb of RAM, a 256gb SSD, etc. :P
Intel is a little confusing in that they call dual cores and quad cores i7s.
The best you will get is about 14 hours on an atom pinetrail based eee pc 1005PE currently.

Enough already.
So you're ready to surrender then?
John Stewart is good, but he's no match for a British journalist.
Because its funny, you ass. You're the kind of person that really can't take a joke and causes wars over a fucking joke.
The Internet, it's serious business.
Meatbags is what the droids refer to us as.
Hubeings!
The yellow sun rays from his teeth did it?
Don't even get me started on "huMANs!"
What does the reporters nationality have anything to do with it?

Good thing we don't live in a democracy then? I would hate to see what would happen if the masses ruled.
To claim nvidia is always superior is dishonest.
Hardly, the high end Nvidia hardware is a good 20-30x faster than Intel's Best.
Intel's GPUs stink, the Tegra GPU is easily 5-10x more powerful.
It would be amusing if you thought project development actually worked that way.
I prefer jackhammers you crazy Luddite!
Much more fun to go around!

A driver doesn't need to be OSS to work correctly.
Many of you have gotten the means to an end confused... You act as if OSS is the end and hardware/software is the means to it.
Restrictions? Unlike Apple's iPhone platform, you can release apps for WebOS devices outside of the app store.
Is it really an illusion though?
Come to New York City then! Some of the best Asian food abound!
A journeyman plumber is also more valuable than a Liberal Arts grad
One has a practical degree, the other has a waste of paper.
If you can't find a job with a PhD in Biochemistry in the entire USA, you're not telling the whole story.
