    Hi all,

    I plan buy a new G1S on the end of December for myself design and web development plus desktop replacement uisng with Windows Server 2003, XP, Vista Multi OS...

    But I go to Asus's web site, don't see any driver is G1S for WinXP, I am worry of that do G1S can install WinXP well and have driver for the touchpad, Display Card, LAN, and WLAN, they are for me is important, and I know Vista is a big slowly compare with WinXP.

    And Asus have three version of G1S, can upgrade the CPU to 7700 and 160GB 7200 rpm HDD, I am wonderful how the CPU 7700 compare with 7500, and the power battery different if I decided upgrade to chose this expersive more one.

    Thank you.

    Check my sig for a driver pack. ;) I usually get 700-1200KB/sec down

    it takes a bit to get it working perfectly (not that bad), but it's worth it in the end
