The single greatest improvement you can make to your laptop is adding memory. When I updated my MacBook from 1GB to 2GB the increase in speed was incredible. As they say, there is no such thing as a fast enough motorcycle or computer.
You'll find a RAM upgrade particualrly beneficial if you have an older laptop/notebook computer. I've still got my Acer Ferrari 3000 and HP Pavillion n5425 kicking around and running strong. (It's amazing what a little TLC will do.) I updated to Windows Vista Premium on the Acer Ferrari and 512mb just didn't cut it any more. 1024mb was just the ticket for the older machine and I handed it down to my younger daughter, ready for it's next life.
Here's a laptop memory selection widget I hope helps:
