looking to buy a notebook computer.
1. uxga display.
2. 40 or 60 gig hard drive. something that can be removed.
3. video memory NOT shared.  i am using a viao grx690 that uses shared
memory and it really slows it down.
4. I don't mind buying from a private vender.
5. I am going to be using this for music and video editing and
therefore it needs to be fast.
I don't care if it is big or heavy.  
6. ram upgradeable to 1 gig or higher (if it comes with 512 then
hopefully they means there is one 512 memory otherwise if there are
two 256 then i have to replace those with two 512 and spend more money
than just adding on 512)
7. DVD-r burner would be nice but not necessary.
8. I want something really fast that is a true desktop replacement.

I am in a huge hurry so answer ASAP. 
Something that ships within a day or two of ordering.

set forth.  Did you read my question?  You have wasted my time.  I am
more than a little upset.  There is no reason to have a follow up
question as you have shown yourself to be a total incompetent.

Waste of time. Didn't follow the critera in my question.

I have the Dell Inspiron 8200.  Available options include a UXGA 15"
screen, up to 64 MB of DEDICATED video memory, and I think, though I'm
not positive, that it can support up to 1GB of DDR RAM.  It is
available with a 5400RPM hard drive (which is good for music/video
recording/editing; regular laptop hard drives are slower).  This is
Dell's top laptop.  It is big and heavy, but it's meant to be a
desktop replacement.  I think some of the Sony Vaios should also meet
your criteria.

I don't know if you can get it to ship within a day or two, though.
