    Hallo,

    I am planning to buy a Portege R500 next week (with 2GB RAM and 160GB HDD, VB). I would like to ask if anybody has an experience with it. Is the performace good for everyday using Office and Internet? I hope it is. Now I have two years old ThingPad with centrino 1,6GHz and it runs perfectly so I thing the new system with Centrino Duo processor should be good even with 1,2GHz processor and older chipset (950).

    P.S. sorry for my bad English, I am from east Europe :)
