    We ordered a customized zx5000 today. specs below:

    - Microsoft(R) Windows(R) XP Home Edition
    - Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 3.00 GHz w/HT Technology
    - 15.4" WXGA BrightView Widescreen(1280x800)
    - 128MB ATI Mobility Radeon(TM) 9600
    - 512MB DDR SDRAM (1x512MB)
    - 60 GB 5400 RPM Hard Drive
    - DVD/CD-RW Combo Drive
    - 54g(TM) Integ. Broadcom 802.11b/g WLAN & Bluetooth
    - Microsoft(R) Works/Money
    - 12 Cell Lithium Ion Battery

    This will be our first laptop. Estimated delivery is 24th.

    We opted for the brightview after seeing it at Bestbuy yesterday. We really loved the clarity, and the glare wasn't bad at all.

    We currently have a desktop with Pentium 2-450mhz, 256sdram, with 10GB harddrive.

    We are quite excited about our purchase and are hoping it arrives sooner then expected.

    Be sure to let us all know what you think about it once you receive it.
