That Mastercard commercial has a point. Might as well buy your kid a box for their birthday, they'll spend more time playing with it than they will the toy anyways. :P

How heavy is the beast? More importantly, does it feel heavy. Weight isn't a real concern, but I am curious. The PCTorque website doesn't list that spec for any of their notebooks...
Thanks!

How hot does it get when doing basic tasks? You said 40C? Most everyone else on these forums say their 9860s get much, much hotter than this. Almost makes me wonder if it's something in the ATI card making it cooler.

It was idling 40 C during the winter. Now it idles at 44 or 45 C

Hey everyone, I'm thinking bout getting one of these new ati m28pro's that will be coming out shortly.What do you guys and gals ( Hello Syn!) think? Too early to upgrade?

Hey Vrod, I didnt even know there was an ATI update coming out? I love the card right now, I'd wait until there is an update with a significant increase in performance like 512mbs ....

Did you get my private messages by the way??

If you could contact me via AIM or email that would be awesome

thanks bro!

Yeah they are coming out with a X800XL 16-Pipes! ETA is unknown but when it does come out, I'm debating wether to get it or not. I will have to email ya since I cant use AIM at work.

Upgrade already?

Personally, I'm more than happy with the performance of my machine (except for the 'play HL2 for 10 minutes then shut off' issue). It's job is to play CS:S, CIV3, Doom3, and Vampire:Bloodlines and it does all those just peachy.

I say wait until something comes out that makes your '03 scores almost double what they are now.

Double my '03 scores. Man thats God-like! Maybe in a couple of years when we start seeing dual core GPU's.
