Looks like I ordered my 9300 3 weeks too early. I paid $3500 all up with the 6800 so I did get around $400 off at the time.
But I would have happily got the 760 version for 33% off. Oh well.
I have the same HD, it is related to the powersaving in the Hitachi drive. I think there is a firmware update for the HD that turns off the power saving
I ordered mine today with the following specs:
Pentium M 740, 1.73GHz, 2MB Cache, 533MHz FSB
17" UltraSharp(TM) Wide Screen XGA Display
512MB (1 X 512MB) 533MHz DDR2 SDRAM
60GB Ultra ATA Hard Drive
Internal 8X DVD+/-RW...
How would the X300 compare with an old G4-Ti4200?. I am looking for a desktop replacement machine, and I currently play a few games which run great on my Ti4200,
Excellent...I have been waiting to get some more information about the Australian release of the 9300 so I can take the plunge.
Please keep us updated and good work!
