    Recommendation for Ultra-Portable?

    I've heard that AW, is actually putting a diffrent screen in them, its similar to X brite. The uniwill dose not come with the Xbriteish screen. I'll go back to my corner now.

    Recommendation for Ultra-Portable?

    I like the panasonic toughbook W2. Its rugged small, has a onboard cd-rw/dvd. Light, looks great imho, and is tough. Check it out.

    Drop dead Gorgeous Gaming Laptop -- which one?

    For straight up performance the Dell XPS with the 9800 is going to be the fastest. Yes yes blasphmey you say, but its true. It has 8 Pipelines where the 9700 has 4, etc... Its going to be faster, but it won't be as pretty. Infact I think the XPS is pretty ugly. But if performance is what your...

    Returned two Thinkpads, what next??

    Most IPS screens such as the Xbrite are highly reflective. They aren't like your dell; they look like highly polished glass. I have used them in store and while I love how brilliant they look, they are just gorgeous, and amazing in my opinion, they are slightly annoying to use. They do reflect...

    laptop screen cleaning

    I use a microfiber cloth, like the ones they sell at high zoot sunglasses shops. But mostly preventitive action. The microfiber cloth will get rid of lint, dust, fingerprints, things of that nature. What is on the screen that needs to be cleaned off?

    asus barebone

    Ok I took a few pics, not as many as I was meaning too, anyways I'll try to explain the entire thing. Over all I would say it was a breeze. To take off the keyboard there are two screws in the bottom, you take those out, then on the top there are three little levers. I took a small watch...

    Strange wireless issues

    Ugh, well I got it fixed. No it wasn't that. I thought about that too. But once it let met get on to the router config, and gave me a valid IP, but no DNS. Well, what I did do, it reinstall all the drivers for botht he wireless, and the gigabitnetwork, and that did the trick. I don't know why. I...

    Strange wireless issues

    I just got my m6bne, its great, but I'm completely stumped by something I'm sure is as simple as can be. I installed the Intel 2200bg mini pci card, attached the black wire to the MAIN, and the white wire to the AUX. Closed it all up, booted, installed the drivers and the utility, everything...

    GamePC brand notebooks?

    Well, its the same computer, sans Wireless mini pci card, which is only 34 bux from mwave anyways, so you could just buy it and put it in later. and no option for any other processor than the 3000+. Also they put in pc-2100 standard, it should really take pc-2700, or pc-3200, But I bet you could...
