The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Ordered my HEL80 from xoticpc yesterday. Amber was pretty helpful. The main reason i geuss i got it from them was their ultra competitive pricing. Here the specs aside from the base

    - Matte screen
    -T7200 (2Ghz, 4Mb cache mem.)
    -Bluetooth, intel wireless card
    - 2 Gigz of ram
    -no OS
    -no DVDRW
    - 80 gig HD @ 5400

    I got all that with shipping for 1460. Not only that, but from when i spoke to amber and the time my order was placed (yesterday) i should be receiving my HEL80 by this commin thursday or friday.

    I just want to thank everyone who contributes to these forums, I have read every single post in all the Overclock stiky, HEL 80 lounge, and many other threads over the past month. Without all of yalls help I would not have been able to make this decision with as much confidence as I have now. Thank you.

    Congratulations on your purchase, Mu'min786. That looks to be a great notebook you've got coming to you. And, welcome to the club! :)
    I'm glad that you have read through both of those threads. There is a lot of useful information in both of them. They are both rather long by now and it takes some commitment to get through them. But it's definitely worth it.

    I hope to see you around here in the future sharing your experiences with the rest of us Compal owners.
