    Hi all,

    Just wanted to say that after 2.4yrs I've finally was able to set aside some money and purchased a 6735B laptop. 2.1Ghz QL-64 with 3GB RAM, 360GB HDD. This was a display model, open box but its super solid, no issues/scratches or nothing.

    I installed Vista and man lost a whole 4hrs install drivers and other junk! Total waste of my time, but formated and installed Win7 Enterprise and I'm so much happier - performance, 1.7 higher performance rating in Win7 than in Vista and it shows when using it.

    I'm coming from a (1yr owner) Dell Optiplex GX520 that I bought for my family. Hoping this can handle learning Java coding, audio production (Ableton Live 7, 8 soon), and Photoshop CS3.

    Cheers.

    If you want additional power savings undervolt the Processor.
