I name my PCs/Servers by the core name of the CPU:
My desktop is "Agena" (Phenom X4)
Laptop is "Trinidad" (Turion X2)
Wife's Laptop is "Merom" (Celly)
File Server is "Sparta" (AM2 Sempron)
I've been doing this for years and it's a built in reminder that I need to upgrade whenever I connect to another machine.;)
Crossfire....you'll get caught up in the....Crossfire, crossfire, CROSSFIRE!
Too bad for ATI, I will not get caught up the crossfire - I'll keep my SLI for now.
Sounds great, but what about battery life? That hing would eat a 6 or 8 cell Li-ion battery for breakfast. Why would a businessman want a laptop that is heavy (2 HDs and bigger battery) low battery life and bulky?
Sounds good in theory, but doesnt work - like communism.
In summary - that is the laptop for communists.
Linux is great, but I have to admit that Windows is much better. The reason people do not switch is compatability. With linux, I cannot have wireless internet (many of hours trying to find drivers!), I cannot figure out how to install device drivers (NVIDIA or ATI), and last, games...need I say more?
Linux will get better and so will Windows - I cannot see Linux ever passing Windows up in usability. Period./I have used Suse, Ubuntu, Red Hat, Mandrake, Linspire...still always go back to Windows in about a week or so.

...but does it have 64-bit drivers for my HP all-in-one printer?
"And better informed."
I went to apply for a walmart credit card whan I was 18 - they already had my information and SSN - I was shocked.
They know too much already!

Yeah, and they all ripped off other books: The Old Testament, The New Testament, and The Koran.

Windows 1.0 couldn't have Windows on Windows (ie more than one program open) and did not have cut-and-paste.
