I am using the ex-top end desktop replacement... the 5100-A740.. now dunno I think 5200 ? check it out. Big screen..better speaker(harmon kardon), good graphic card.. dvd r-w etc. basically everything that you need for a desktop replacement Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N@Z 0 Report post Posted November 10, 2003 As long it have a proper touch pad. I really hate that 't!t' joystick in the middle of the keyboard old Toshis used to have. That was a brilliant idea Seriously though if we had a proper service center then I'd consider it. Plus integrated wi-fi & bluetooth connectivity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kenshinz 0 Report post Posted November 10, 2003 Hehe... like my lecturer likes to say last time... "You know why they named it Satellite? Bcos it weights as much as one" Thanks, will take a look but I don't think its what I'm looking for.. too big a screen and weight. I have very simple needs 14.1" Screen - Just nice for me.. bigger = heavier At least a Radeon 7500 GFX - Once in a while when the bug bites, can play a little game CDRW drive 512MB RAM - Need this to handle abit of graphics work Below 2.75KG - No joke lugging it up a slope Waiting for next year's NUS laptop offers, this year's offer sucks big time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blues 0 Report post Posted November 10, 2003 My toshis come with a proper pad. Infact AFAIK, alot of IBMs don't come with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
