The trouble with doing that is when you're viewing at a smaller resolution, the image isn't as crisp because it's having to stretch the display over extra pixels. It's always much nicer to view stuff at native resolution.
Not sure on an ETA - last I heard, PCTorque didn't even have an ETA.
3D modelling, CAD and image work can be nice to have the extra resolution, but I agree with you Fungo, it can make it more difficult to see. Each to their own.
It really depends on what you're doing, though generally speaking the Pentium M 2.13GHz will run more like a 3.4GHz P4 desktop chip.
The advantage of the P4 over the PM is seen in number-crunching applications, like 3D rendering,...
Yeah, I've got the Antec, but it doesn't really do much. I prop mine up with two MiniDV tape cases on either side. Gives a great typing angle and elevates the screen, which is nice when using dual monitors. Sometimes the best things...
Do the fans in the lapcool2 blow up or down? The reason I mention it is the air intakes are on the bottom of the machine and if the cooler is blowing down, the cooler could be 'stealing' the cold air that needs to be going into the...
Yeah, I'd like to know also. Dual HDDs is the part of my dream machine that's least likely to appear and the only reason I really want that is to have the extra space (while maintaining a 7200rpm speed). I could live with just one if...
It's tempting to trust the percentage that Windows shows, but I'm very hesitant to trust that. Fully charge it, and then time how long it takes to completely run out - then see if your method increases the overall battery life by...
As far as I know, there's no easy fix. I got the impression that the liquid in the batteries can crystalize, reducing the life of a single charge and aside from opening it up and flushing it out and replacing all the stuff inside,...
