Yo, wassup?
You in the wrong thread?

And here's my suggestion, get one with a Core i5, 3-4GB RAM, SSD for storage and some awesome nVidia mobile graphics(preferably something between the 5th or 6th in the series, eg. GTS 250M...).

Sure, keeping it on for days at a stretch is no problem.... as long as you keep it hooked up to mains power and most importantly, make sure it is set up in such a way that it has good airflow to keep it cool.

As far as configuration goes, I'm not into laptops.

As long as the computer is well ventilated, you can leave it on for days on end. Try to get some decent sized notebooks so that it's not a super compact one that has issues with ventilation.
As for power wise.... really up to you. I'm more inclined to say the P series cpus from intel are nice and powerful and cool at the same time. But for performance, you're still better off with a desktop.

You could go weeks on end with an old 386 laptop and a big deep cycle marine battery.  You'd need a very aggressively reinforced backpack and one hell of a pair of legs though.
