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.

    I'm not too thrilled with some of the limitations in how you can and cannot configure these things but I think I got as close to what I wanted.
    I got the 500GB mechanical drive and only 4Gb memory. I'll slap a Samsung SSD in it along with more memory as soon as I get it.
    Can you say excited? The model # is CF-54C9108CM.

    Description: Gloved Multi Touch (1000 nit), Windows 7 Professional (with Win 8.1 Pro COA), Intel Core i5‑5300U 2.30GHz, 14.0" FHD LCD, 500GB Shock‑mounted HDD (7200rpm), 4GB, Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, 4G LTE Multi Carrier, GPS Receiver, Insertable Smartcard Reader (bottom), Dual Pass (Upper WWAN / Lower GPS), DVD Super MULTI Drive, Fingerprint Reader, TPM 1.2, Backlit Emissive Keyboard, Toughbook Preferred
