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.

    No.. i think it's true but the original price of $1600 might be not.
    Core Duo T2300 and Integrated gpu for $800 seems like it. They r selling old stuff.

    I would recommend you check their ratings on resellerratings.com if you are hesitant about buying from them.

    If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. There are deals out there, but no steals. This is especially true of notebooks.
