Performance index subscores on late model laptops?

[Roof Fiddler]

I'm planning to replace my desktop with a laptop, and want to get a general
idea of relative performance in Vista.

Anybody running RC1 or RC2 on a late-model laptop with a 7200rpm SATA drive,
can you post your hard disk model and Vista's performance index hard disk
subscore? I've got a 7200rpm 300GB Maxtor SATA desktop drive (model 6B300S0)
with a score of 5.3 in RC2, and want to see how drastic Vista says the
difference is between it and current laptop drives.

Also, I've got a Nvidia 6600GT AGP graphics card with a graphics subscore of
5.5 and gaming graphics subscore of 4.7. Anybody with a late-model laptop
with a dedicated graphics card (e.g. a Thinkpad T60p), can you post your
graphics card model and performance index subscores for comparison?

For complete reference, my machine has a 2GHz Athlon 64 3000 and 1GB PC2600
RAM, with processor and memory subscores of 4.0 and 4.1, respectively.

FWIW - I was able to install the latest build (in June) on my Toshiba M45
laptop from WalMart. With some performance tweaks it ran quite well.

IMO you should be looking at the latest technologies - since Vista seems to
assign lower numbers to older technologies (for example, my P4 3.0 gHz
processor on my desktop only rates a 3 on the performance scale)
