    I have both, the X300 with 1.2 CPU and the D430 with U7600 CPU. Both have XP Pro, the D430 I have dual boot with Vista Ultimate...for some reason I sometimes think the X300 is faster...does anyone have any same feelings? I also hate how hot the D430 gets, the X300 runs at 29C, the D430 63-66C and I hate that the fan on the D430 is always on...well almost always on...I hardly hear it on the X300. Im debating selling the D430, any thoughts?
