laptops

my opinion of other laptops I have used

Toshiba tecra 8000
Dell latitude LS
dell latitude c810

The toshiba was a powerhorse when 64 megs of ram, and the pentium 2 was expensive.
It only runs xp professional, and works best as a program monitor of some piece of equipment.

The latitude ls, was the thinnest laptop I have ever used. the screen was 13 inches, it weighed 4 or less pounds. It was made when the 400 mhz pentium 3 and 256 meg of ram was expensive.
I would say that the LS was only 3/4 of an inch thick

The latitude c810 is a very powerful desktop replacement, with only 2 hours of battery life, and a 15 inch screen. The processor was a pentium 3 mobile, the speed would jump all over the place just by opening a word document. The only bad, is that the thing weighs about 10 pounds.

My laptop that I own, (the other 3 belonged to epb)
is the compaq v2000z. It is so fast, and really quiet. I got it about 7 months ago, and The processor is a 2 ghz AMD mibile sempron. (5 hours of battery life)
