Hi, I just posted a thread about the battery being empty after letting the computer sit unused. The only other minor inconvenience I have with the N5010 is that the hard drive (60GB, 7200rpm) seems to go into sleep mode in just a few...

Hi, I have been using a Fujitsu N 5010 for over a year and although I still love that machine I have started to notice that the battery is almost empty each time I let the computer sit for a long time without using it. I did a test and...

I am still looking around, and I am full of hope (I saw your other post about the N5010). Actually I was more looking at the Gateway 505 now, because I don't want the text to be too small (the 15.4" WXGA looks OK to me, even if it...

Well, you are right, the price is much better that way for the 8600. Thanks! The special discounts end on Thursday, so I guess I have 2 days left to hesitate I just received a reply in the Sager/General forum about the 4080 and it...

Now, I may be overlooking something, but it's kind of strange that I can't find any review (even short reviews) for the 4080. According to pctorque, it is shipping since 11/23. Any pointer to a review would be very much appreciated....

Hi, I am shopping around for a laptop that would be used mainly for office apps and programming, with the occasional DVD/ game. I really would like a good screen. Assuming a 15" screen (for space/weight), I think 1400x1050 is the...
