Hey guys! I'm looking to buy a Tablet laptop and I'm not sure which to choose. So here are the top three contestants that I see so far and their pro/cons: 1. IBM X41 Pros: * Lightest of the bunch. 4lbs is less than my...

My best advice for anyone going for a laptop for college is... go small. I have a 13.3 inch weighing in at 4.3 lbs and it has been one of my best purchases ever. I bring it EVERYWHERE with me and it is extremely conveniant as my...

Hey, for what I've seen, all these types of threads cause is arguments. Stop trolling the forums, man. Its great that your laptop is fast. But so what? There is no worth to this thread. Now, if you posted the overclocking process...

Celeron just screams "BAD BAD NO!!!" in my mind. From the experience I've had with them, they were slow. And we were only programming on them! But that was two years ago and they might be better now. What's the price range...

either your code is flawed, or your programming language has some wierd way of handling code blocks :P if(heat.isAnIssue()){ CPU.Suggest(Pentium-M); } if(!amountMoney()){ printf("so, how much money do you plan to...
