    Why is no one talking about this notebook?

    Hey guys,
    I've stumbled on a review of the Packard Bell TJ65 from notebookjournal.de.

    Check it out :

    http://translate.google.com/transla...ckard-bell-easynote-tj65-cu-009ge-nkrt-1027/4

    This laptop seems just GREAT!

    Look at the heat emissions under full load; they're so LOW! :

    I was wondering whether some of you have this laptop and if you could post some personal pros and cons about that laptop. I might be considering it if I buy a laptop soon.

    Thanks a lot.

    Probably because of the brand, Packard Bell is from the dinosaur era of computers.

    The main reason why there's not much hype on the Packard Bell TJ65 is because Packard Bell's market is primarily in the EU and Asia. Being a US website/forum, not many people here will know about this particular laptop.

    I have that model, see my sign. Great office performance and a little game, low noise and heat! And i'm going to replace the CPU saving additional 10W of TDP :p
    Robust notebook, great LCD, only microphone and sound card is poor (noisy sound).

    yes,a little whining sound comes out of the speaker,but you should put ear on the speaker to hear it.

    I am from turkey,and everyone is buying this laptop,it owns everybrand with it's performance/money ratio,and it does not have anything crap and un reliable.It is built with quality,and people that do not use this laptop lose if they are looking for a cheap gaming laptop.
