Vanilla Jedi where did you hear about the M18? With the hard switch by Intel over to PCIe I thought the M11 would be the last AGP mobile graphic card from ATI. Guess I was wrong but I'd still like to know how you know about it. I was...

Thanks for your help guys. This notebook will be the only pc I'll have so if I buy a desktop dvd burner I'll need to buy a case for it too. Any idea which one I should go for? I was searching newegg but didn't know exactly what I was...

Should I go with the 4x DVD+burner or the CDRW/DVD combo? I was thinking about saving a little money and later on getting a higher speed internal desktop burner and a case so I can use it externally. I was told by a friend who builds...

Good luck. I hope to be ordering my G3 today Here's some more for good luck

I talked to reps at both ABS and GamePC and they both told me that the SiS755 chipset runs PC3200 ram at the actual 400 MHz, whereas the VIA chipset will only allow ram to run at 333 MHz even if you have PC3200. I'd like to see some...

Interesting review FuSoYa. Seems to be on par with the other AMD64+9700 notebooks. My question is, wouldn't the performance be much better if they had used PC3200 mem instead, and a higher rpm hdd? How much of a performance bump would...

The heat is something I would be looking for in the first 30 days. Do you think it is as hot as something like the 5690? If it got too hot for me I would send it back, but I won't know till I try it. It is the Uniwill but I've never...

I'm really close to buying the new G3. I just called and talked to a sales rep who was very nice. I told him my concerns (ie new technology and PCI-Ex coming out) and he said that he really doesn't see that coming out for laptops for...
