Gutted, its only for US residents. Looks good though.

 

Yea, it's been posted but does anybody know if Core 2 Duo qualifies as well?

I imagine not becuase it clearly says core duo. Who knows i guess someone will try it with core 2 duo

 

It says Centrino Duo most places.

That works for both core 1&2

 

You never know but i would think intel with their power probably would not deny claims for core 2 duo either

 

This brings to mind the many possible lawsuits that intel will have to entertain by not changing the name between core duo and core 2 duo distinctly enough.

 

I got my relax pack last week. The turnaround time was quick, maybe 2 weeks tops from when I submitted the form. The extras are no big deal but the backpack is very nice indeed. Well constructed with lots of padding and pockets. Too bad my 17" lappy won't fit inside. It'll work well as a travel bag though.

 

Will it fit at least a 15.4"? Which size would it be most suitable for?

 

Looks very nice, pity it's US only.

Of course, I wouldn't have been seen dead with anything Intel branded two years ago. The new Core architecture has redeemed their reputation.

 

Eh...I could barely fit in a HP Pavillion dv2000t..which is a 14.1" widescreen laptop. If you have widescreen, it won't fit..it will be too tall.

In my opinion, the backpack is great, but its biggest weakness is the size of laptop pocket..it is just too small! I also fit my Thinkpad X22 in there, and lol, even as small as X series, I could still see parts of the laptop once I fully stuff it in there.. kinda ridiculous.

Seriously though, I think Intel designed the backpack to fit in very high end tablet, in smaller form factors, like UMPC or something heh....rather sad.

 

I got the relax pack for my s96j (w/ Core 2 Duo) a couple of days ago, apprx. 10 days since I sent in the required docs. Nice little backpack for 14.1" and under laptops, or you could just use it for school. Will not fit the s96j unless you really stuff it in there (too long) and the huge Intel logo makes you into some kind of walking advertisement for them. But hey, it's free!

 

US only bah... Lemme know if they expand it to Canada and I'll pounce on it
