kingsuv Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 So whats the opinion on this laptop? I'm thinking of getting my son one. Quote Designing, building, and shipping boxes. Yahoo IM - kingsuv00If the listening level is too loud, please inform the driver, so he can promptly pull over, and let you out. not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Johnson Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 I have a white one with a 160gb hd It is super light only 3 lbs and it is reasonable to use for classes. The thing is pretty much made for Internet surfing and word processing. it is called a netbook for that reason. the mouse area is hard to get used to and at my age the font size had to be enlarged overall it is a superb laptop. One thing you need to remember is it is an Intel Atom processor. This is not a dual core and it will seem slow if you are used to that. I have to say If I had a younger child I would not hesitate to purchase another one for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildbeast15 Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 i have a feeling i am going to buy it and swap the cpu for a 2.4 ghz dual quad core lol and give it about 6 gig of ram.. then swap the hdd out for a 2tb laptop hdd... for about 600 bucks more that computer will be balzy.. and i have a prototype nvidia gtx 800 for the laptop shall be pretty good..

He has one eye but that only makes for bad depth perception so hey so what if he is running into shit, look at it this way he is easy to sneak up ninja style on.

Xplorer Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 I love those little PC's. I have a friend that has a 10" EeePC with Vista installed, and it's pretty sweet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Johnson Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 You can not go over 2 gb ram. Besides you will never be able to do what you are talking about doing to that computer. Walmart is selling the 120gb hd and 3 cell battery one for $349 here in kansas. it even comes in pink. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Johnson Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 3 cell is 4 hrs and we get 7.25 out of the 6 cell that came with ours. Windows is not as fast as the ones with linux but it is nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
