OK JJ, nice unit hope you enjoy it, listen my laptop is a Toshiba Satellite that is about 12 years old. just trying to turn you up.
but
Just think you could of had a Eurocom instead.
really a nice unit, enjoy it, the monster above in June 2011 was the top of the line fastest laptop on the market. Don't know if it still holds that title.
I am just jealous
smerf
That system looks good smerf. Alienware have probably improved but in "2009" I steered away from alien ware due to being the worst value at the time and not having LED backlit or Full HD screen yet wanting $500 or more than mine...............
Clevo 870WU 17.3" full HD LED, Intel I7 extreme turbo 3.2 ghz, 4gb RAM, Nvidia gtx 280M, 128 gig SSD (2 hard drive bays), HDMI, E-sata, 64 bit windows 7 professional and blu ray.
This is a custom build laptop that has no manufacturer bloatware and is "upgradable" like a tower system. The only thing I am going to change out is the nvidia card due to some issues to an ATI one which should resolve them.
Also have 4 year old + ASUS netbook (10") we bought for touring the U.S. and Canada with hdmi, 2 gig RAM, nvidia graghics and windows 7. Plays full HD video on my TV but atom to slow for winUAE:cry:
As for HP:pissed: only dud laptop ($3000 worth!) myself or friends have had. Hundreds of man Hrs and money lossed trying to fix. They were good I guess "back in the day". Yet cheap as chips laptop like compaq back then ($1000) (owned by HP I beleive) I gave as a gift still working.
My missus has a fugistu laptop, runs XP and I havn't touched it since new.(says Made in Japan on case)
