I currently have two laptop P4s and a Shuttle AMD64 in my system. I have the shuttle as a backup, but have not had one second's trouble out of the laptops in over three years of use. I use a pcmcia Echo Indigo soundcard in them to get the best sound, and they sound great.

Like some of you, I have two video cards and two sound cards in my Shuttle, but since I don't often use it, I keep it at home.

I also have a cheaper laptop to use in a emergency. It does not have the external sound card, but can be used if I need it. This stays with the karaoke stuff when we are setting up for the night.

I really prefer the Shuttle, but it means more cables and an extra monitor, and that takes up quite a bit of space on the tables I use. Some places don't have the room to use it, so my karaoke ladies prefer the laptops. They are also quite a bit easier to set up and use without the monitor and keyboard to worry about.

I also have a three disc player and a karaoke machine, but that is another story.
