I have a Dell Inspiron 1501.
Dual Core AMD Turion 1.6ghz x2
2 gigs ddr2 533mhz
80gig hard drive
Integrated Radeon 1405 256mb graphix card
Runs well and smooth, comes with vista.
Perfect for school purposes and can even run a few games.
All half life source games.
WoW
(Note you have to turn the graphix down)
It can run like 6-8 hours on the battery if you set the power options right.
Highly recommended.

ive noticed a lot of dells and macs at my school. depends on what you're gonna use it for.
I have an Asus A8JS laptop. It's a wonderful lapotp! It has a GeForce 7700 Go, which runs Dod at 60 FPS (even on Vista!). Of course i bought 2 GB of RAM for it (3 GB total now) i dont know if that will affect FPS in DOD. Other than that, I love that. hey DJ I'm in Irvine too. Are you at UCI?

I forgot to mention it's also cheap -- less thatn 1500 (I bought mine off of provantage.com -- good service and shipping speed!)

I agree with Atanamir on the Asus. If you decide Dell, don't go looking to the actual company for support. If you choose anything from HP, expect expensive repairs from the company and/or look for a small business around you to fix.
If you don't plan on gaming for the laptop, I suggest the mac probook. Even though I don't like macs, they are dependable, able to organize music and videos with ease, editing photos and videos, etc.
