Thanks Matt, and Merry Christmas to you to.

I think I will stick with the home office 17" Inspiron, the one on the far right, model number 1720.

I will add a few things like a Logitech wireless minimouse, as I do not care for touchpads.
Even when I used my old Fujitsu here I had a MS Intellimouse (with cord) hooked up to it.

Also I will have them leave off the Trend Micro antivirus as I run AVG here at home.

Another advantage to having the laptop besides managing the UT III server is I can surf from the living room if I want to and not jump out of my recliner during commercials and come into the bedroom here and check for updates on forums, ect.

Now that I finally stepped upto the wireless age, it will be nice to not have a laptop tethered down with a long cat 5 cable.
I tired surfing that way before, it was a pain with the cable hanging off the side of the old Fujitsu worrying about yanking on it or tripping over it.
