Why? The thing is a friggin' tank. It isn't as light as many other notebooks, but it goes in and out of my car several times a week where it gets tossed around with my books. The price was right when I bought it back around October/November ($1200 at the time). I also like the IBM software (for the most part) but this wasn't a buying decision. This little Pentium M machine has served me well for most any task so far, and I can't see it letting me down anytime soon. -- This signiture pisses you off. |
