QUOTE(cks2k2 @ Oct 2 2006, 08:29 AM) Oh if you have money to burn, go for the Centrino 2 Duo. Else Centrino Duo. Turion is cheap though but performance wise still lacking. No such thing as Centrino 2 Duo in the market. Even the upcoming Intel 'Santa Rosa' platform (update for the current Centrino Duo), its commercial name is not yet finalized. |

So in that case buying the s2110 is on the safe side compared to the Compaq model, as the heat wouldn't be that.
I'm looking for the 60gig model because i use that rig for paperwork purposes only. |

I think you could buy a 256MB of RAM for it , or you could ask the shopkeeper to replace the 256MB with a 512MB.

QUOTE(cks2k2 @ Oct 2 2006, 08:29 AM) I doubt you can find a laptop that can run 8 hours straight. I'm using a Thinkpad with extra capacity battery and it gives me 4.5 hours only. sony up to 8 hours normal batt and extended 12 hours. just take amd and save.Oh if you have money to burn, go for the Centrino 2 Duo. Else Centrino Duo. Turion is cheap though but performance wise still lacking. |
