5400RPM HD - Laptop

Do you guys think that a 5400 RPM HD is good for a laptop? I can't find better speeds than that...

So what you think?

5400 RPM is about the standard. You can get 7200 RPM but they are a bit pricey.

My laptop is 5400 RPM's - the 7200 RMP HD's are a ***** on battery life.

Nah the laptop I'm buying has a battery life of 2 hours, I don't need additional stuff to make that 2 hours less!

I have 7200 but i have also seen some 5400 who work just as well.

Well.. it's either the CPU or maybe the HD, but when I copy/paste files from partition to partition, on the laptop it's faster than on my PC.
