I've just placed an order request for a new laptop — I say “request” because the company isn't 100% sure they'll have it prepped for me in time for Mexico so I'm just waiting to hear back from them. If not, some of these specs get rolled back a generation… but either way it's more than enough machine to run BME from and do my development and writing work on.
- 3.6 GHz P4, 800 Mhz bus, 1 MB L2 Cache
- 1 GB RAM (max 4 GB, but I don't need that), 256 MB Video w/HDTV+SVideo out
- 17″ WSXGA 1680×1025 resolution
- Dual 80 GB SATA drives in a RAID-1 (mirrored) configuration, DVD-R+CD-R drive
- 802.11b/g+Bluetooth, TV Tuner, 56K V90/V92Model, Gigabit ethernet
- 102 key keyboard, touchpad, 5 speaker sound, 7-in-1 cardreader
The company I ordered from was on that was involved with (or was started by, I can't remember) some folks that my father and I used to do development work with, but unfortunately neither of them are still with the company so I didn't get any special treatment.
