    Compal JHL90 Notebook Computer 1
    Display: 15.4" WSXGA+ Glare

    thanks guys well i have only heard of two ppl getting their laptops and it looks great from the pics that sphinx took cant wait for it to come and its gonna be my first time building a laptop :D but i like this type of stuff i ordered it from rjtech.com has anybody bought anything from them their reseller rating is REALLY good so i bought it from them and the price of the barebone was much cheaper compared to xoticPC selling the same barebone. oh and if anybody bought a laptop from rjtech.com how long does it take them to charge your card and everything?

    yea ive heard about that.... 1GB imo was not enough for vista personally i think it need atleast 2GBs or more 4 would be perfect... i had a makeshift one in my desktop setup so that i would boot up CRAZY fast :D that was a 8GB thumbdrive that i was using it worked perfectly but i will compare the speeds of this to a non turbo memory m17x :D
