I am sure within a year those will trickle down to the 'ol lappy

AMD is generally cheaper than intel with better benchmarks. this is the laptop tha i've wanted since i was a wee boy.

but honestly if this thing can hold like 4 GB of ram AND have the badass FSB of 1600 then i'll be all over it like a farmer on a goat. that's what i would rather have than the Intel. but of course i would still have the Nvidia card. i prefer them for a host of reasons. but that's a flame war lol

can't wait

It's an iCurve. Primarily used with external keyboards as it sits pretty high.. plus the 9880 is so heavy, its actually bending it, your wrists wouldn't make it any better. It is cooler however.

Here's the design:

thanks Syn. Where did u get it and how much????

Chances are its made for an Imac... I think you have it upside down; but a great use!!!

anyone know where the whole i before everything came from with apple?

lol. Its actually right side up. Those little rubber strips you see keep the lap top from sliding off. Once you put your laptop on top, you pretty much can't see that round base underneath. Check it out here

"Invisible Laptop Stand" for iMacs

Griffin Technology

You can get it here at Provantage for 34.95 shipped. If you search more you might be able to find a better deal: I just used Froogle.

Synergism,
Which of the laptops is the best so far?

AMD Dual-Core processing hits the laptop world!

The latest buzz in the processor industry is about dual core processor. AMD may be the first to take the limelight with their announcement of dual core AMD Opteron dual core processor set to launch in mid-2005 but Intel and IBM are cueing up their dual core processors as well.

A dual core processor is exactly what it sounds like. It is two processor cores on one die essentially like having a dual processor system in one processor. AMD's Opteron processor has been dual processor capable since its inception. Opteron dual core processor was designed with an extra HyperTransport link. The relevance of it was mostly overlooked. HyperTransport Technology simply means a faster connection that is able to transfer more data between two chips. This does not mean that the chip itself is faster. It means that the capability exists via the HyperTransport pathway for one chip to “talk” to another chip or device at a faster speed and with greater data throughput.


News on Intel's Dual-Core Notebook Chip.

Yonah, a notebook chip coming from Intel in the first part of next year, is going to be a lot different than its predecessors, company executives say.

The chip, which will be made on the 65nm process, will come with a number of enhancements over the current Pentium M line of notebook chips, Mooly Eden, vice-president of the mobility group, said at a briefing in San Francisco.

For one thing, it will contain two cores, instead of the single core on current notebook chips. The two separate cores will also share a 2MB cache. Current dual-core desktop chips from AMD and Intel come with similar sized caches, but each core accesses only 1MB of cache memory dedicated to it. Sharing the cache will significantly boost performance. (The chips communicate with the cache through a single bus embedded in the chip.)

This info was provided by: http://www.cheap-laptops.ca/amd_dual_core_laptop.htm

When will Sager give us their model number and options??

Looks like this should get better battery life with the less power consuming athlon chip and ATI 800XT chip. Only 2 GB of ram and 2 Ram slots? Hopefully that is a misprint.

When Notebookforums.com users learn to effectively use the search function?

Interesting that you can get a 1.3mp camera as an upgrade and optional second battery bracket are listed there as well. It does suck that you can only get 2GB of RAM, but if that is the best they will do it is no worse than the Intel laptops.

The link you provided gives info about the Clevo D900K but no info on a SAGER MODEL NUMBER.

Obviously the subtle point I was attempting to offer was a bit too subtle.

To be a bit more blunt, the need for a second (or third, or fourth, etc) thread on a subject already covered is quite minimal. It is increasingly more difficult on patrons seeking information to be subjected to wading through a myriad of threads on the same topic. Also, you can be certain that any official information will be posted here. Information apart from such announcements is speculative conjecture at best, and I for one am glad the administrators of this forum take a non-Eurocom/non-Go-L approach to such practices.

Hopefully that clears up any misunderstanding on your part.

Rrrrrr 2GB

I don't beleive they are going to limit us to 2GB. That is completely unnecessary. This is a deliberately implemented limit, not a hardware limit. It stinks.

Benoni

Maybe someone will come up with 2 gig chips

I read somewhere that samsung is...but the latency will be an issue..unless its xdr..but then again you have to factualize production costs and take into consideration bandwidth and read/write speeds. Im sure the market will gobble it up if its done right.

btw..yaaaaaaaaaaaaawn
