I3 processor sounds OK.
Go for lots of RAM first.
64bit has no real advantage over 32bit if your stuck with less than 4GB RAM.

"64bit has no real advantage over 32bit", but with the disadvantage of broken applications :P

I'm on 64bit now for a year. Till now I've found only one application broken and fixed it with XP mode (win7 64 ultimate 12GB ram i7).

Define Best? Define your parameters?

I develop using laptop that runs WinXP and have 100G HD and 2GB ram. Would I call it the best, of course not, but it is fast for what I do and it gets the job done. My solution has 10 projects and at times I load multiple versions of visual studio, SQL explorer, multiple browsers (testing) and the usual stuff, like mail and what have you.

Don't spend more than $500 on a laptop. It will be obsolete the day you buy it, and you generally can't upgrade them I get dual-core with a minimum of 4gb of RAM, a 320GB hard drive, and a 15-inch screen. Again, I don't spend more than $500 on a laptop. If they break after the waranty expires, I don;t feel bad at all about throwing it away and getting a new one.

BTW, I almost always buy Acer, wipe the hard drive, and put a real copy of Windows on it.
