so how you like being mobile?

I dont think I will ever get another desktop. laptops are so much more convienent.

it'[ hasn't comeyet i just placed the order today...

and we'll see i found that on other notebook i didn't like it because they where slow..

but now i need to get one so i went for a FAT model... we'll see =-D

Congrats on the order!!! I personally will never buy HP again, but hopefully you have better luck than I did.

I love my laptops, but I'll never get rid of my desktop. I can't get something as powerful and still have it as a "laptop."

My notebook is for battery life, even though mine is very powerful, it'll still last 4 hours on a charge, but my desktop far outstrips it.

[starshooter10]

yeah.. by the numbers that unit should be as fast as my desktop if not faster...

but i kow it's not going to proform nearly as well

it's for portability thats all =-D

Im running a dell with a dual core processor, 2 gig ram, 512 mb video card, media bay battery and I usually dont get to my primary battery except on really long flights.

[starshooter10]

i've always loved thye idea of a media bay batt =-D

My media bay battery gives another 3 hours of use. the media bay battery is the one that gets drained first.
