Title: Good value - but....
Product review: Just opened my new PC and have been playing with it for about 3 days - here are my first impressions...Excellent value - very fast (2.4 ghz) - fantastic screen - good mem at 512M, although don't like the fact that you can't add more (reportedly). Downsides - battery hog - 2 hours reported but a realistic 1.5. No floppy with the unit - have to buy as an extra. Poor battery bay - can't open the bay with laptop closed - must be open - very clumsy. Have to remove a panel every time you plug into port replicator - can't leave panel off when using laptop alone - bad design flaw.HDD comes formatted in 2 partitions! Why would anyone do such a thing? 30 gig is slim to start with - try fitting everything on 15! Good news is you can reformat and reload everything on 1 partition.Over all, excellent machine for the $$ ... - I'd buy it again. Good desktop replacement - ok to lug around if you don't mind a large laptop bag (that 16.1" screen takes lots of room!
