![]() ![]() It weighs 2-3 pounds less than my T41 and it's noticable in a briefcase. It's a "nice to have" thingy in case other drives die. Since I've got a 512 MB, 1 GB, and 4 GB memory stick, I don't think I would be burning many disks with it anyway. (I can't really say how much slower it is with only 512 MB - I bought more before I even received the laptop.) I haven't used it much yet, and haven't installed Linux on it yet, but it's worked well with WinXP with the extra 512 MB of RAM installed. I'm sure I'm going to be very happy with it. The keyboard works well, the screen is pretty nice, but not perfect, and it's amazingly light weight even with the DVD replaced by the 2nd battery. I'll report back when I have a chance to play with it a little. (Newegg has 512 MB modules, but they're not DDR 333 parts.) The cheapest compatible 1 GB modules for it that I've seen are - Fujitsu wants $850 - for 1 GB. It's very expensive to max it out at 2 GB. It's smaller than the MacBook too.Ī bad thing about this laptop is that it uses a special memory module: DDR2 400 MHz Micro-DIMM (172 pin). I thought about a MacBook, but I don't think the Core2 would have anything close to the battery life of this thing. (Note that the cheaper version of the P7120 with the CD-RW doesn't have Bluetooth - if that's important to you.) It's nice - bigger screen, Core Solo - but it has soldered memory and a 1 GB limit. Of course, the price should be lower in a few months, assuming you can find one. If you're thinking about one, these specials seem to be related to back-to-school, so they may end at the end of the month. They have been having weekend sales on them that drops the prices to ~ $1500/$1800. If it had gone above my limit, I would have ordered a new one from NewEgg. Being able to have an optical drive or an additional battery was a nice plus too. I love the idea of it being so light and small, having a 1280x768 display, and having such great battery life. I had to bid on a couple before I was able to win one. It may be a few days more after that before I can get Linux on it. I hope to have it by the weekend, but it'll probably be next week. It was about $1345 on eBay (+shipping/tax). Myibay will do this job for you.The DVD/60GB/Atheros/Bluetooth version. That is, you can turn off your computer, go to vacation or do something else.
