    We'd love more reviews for any laptop. The more reviews we have, the more information and opinions we can get from the actual users of the models.

    I think there's three or four MacBook Pro reviews, and I'd love for more reviews on all notebooks :p.

    Yeap, you need to email him with the review and he will edit it and finalize and post it on the main site as well as on the forums.

    WHAT THE...

    we get PAID to write reviews?!?!?!!?!?! O.O

    "Reviewers are compensated at least $40 for their work and up to $60 if benchmarks and pictures are included, so contact us to find out more information regarding procedures."

    IF that's the case, I should write a review for EVERY notebook I get. I'll be rich in no time. hahaha.

    Yeap, you get compensated for doing a review, think of it as a nice way to get a free upgrade or a free peripheral......or to knock off a bit of the price :)

    that's such a great idea. I am SO GOING to write a review for this machine. It'd be so nice if I were to get $60 for my review. I feel so guilty for spending that much on the G1.

    Do you think I can review my E1505? It has a Core Duo T2500 (Yonah, not Merom) though...I think the current Dell E1505 review is not very thorough as it can be.

    Well, You'd have to submit it and see, as 2 reviews per unit is often enough.

    It might be a good idea to PM abaxter before you start work on your reviews too. To let him know you're interested in doing a review and for what system.

    I believe that's outlined in the Writing a Review guidelines. Better safe than sorry.
