The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved.

    4 hours ago. I like. Not much smaller than my 15.4 but I knew not small 14's. Ram bandwidth almost 25% more than Santa Rosa. T9400 much more powerfull than AMD TL-52 and runs much cooler. I like it but having trouble working with Vista. HDD came partitioned for applications and data. Very nice. :)

    Learning new notebook and OS not easy.

    It is beautiful. I can't even get the on board one to work. After tomorrow have the weekend. I can't believe the specs for the price. I have hung around NBR for a while. Could have bought 1330 or Sony 13 or Sager. But at the right time I picked this and happy. Size and budget did it. But it feels good and solid.

    I will see about pics over weekend.

    @powerpack

    Hey, just wondering, do you have any logs under summary of administrative events in your control panel/administrative tools/event viewer?
