Hey Zak,

 

I'm curious about the Pentium M series. How is it? How good does it work? You in the Philippines?

Pentium M is the Mobile proc of Intel and was built from ground-up vs. Pentium desktops counterparts.

 

It is also part of the Centrino technology. (Pentium-M, intel chipset & intel Wi-Fi)

 

better just get the P-M & chipset. or the new intel wi-fi w/ 802.11b/g.

i made the greatest mistake on buying my asus d1400. it has an external battery and you still need to plug in the battery or direct to outlet... well, the performace is good and it has 4 usbs ... i suggest, if you will buy a laptop, buy the ones with internal battery....

Does Compaq have a service center here in the Philippines? I have a presario 700, and ayaw mag-connect sa cable internet.

i have 2 hp-p3, 1 compaq-p3,1 nec-p2, 1 ibm laptop-p2

 

hp 's are the best in the bunch- my workhorses open 20hrs everyday, overworked but still work!

compaq - ok i few quirks but still ok, minor problem with power cable

nec - nec sucks i wont recommend it

ibm - still ok , another workhorse but design is too blocky form me.

I have a Compaq Presario R3070US that I got last February. Here are the specs:

 

3.06 GHz Pentium 4

512MB RAM

80GB HD

ATi Mobility Radeon 9200 with 64MB Dedicated RAM

WinXP Pro

Firewire

4 USB 2.0 ports

4-in-1 card reader

HP usb Digital Drive docking port and drive with 256MD SD card

15.4" widescreen display (1280x800)

802.11g Wi-fi

S-Video out

1 Type II PCMCIA slot

Modem, LAN, parallel ports

JBL Pro speaker system

DVD+RW drive

 

I tricked it out with the components I would have wanted included with it such as:

Bluetooth USB dongle

80GB external Firewire storage

IRDA dongle

Port replicator with parallel, serial, 2 PS/2, and 2 USB 1.1 ports

4 port USB 2.0 hub

4 post USB 1.1 hub

 

Needless to say I'm quite happy with it although those new desktop replacements and TabletPC are starting to look mighty good.

 

I won't bother listing the specs of my other notebooks as this is my main portable machine. I have 1 Sony VAIO 600MHz Celeron notebook, 1 Compaq Presario 600MHz Celeron notebook, 1 1GHZ Pentium III VAIO notebook.

Mine's a Compaq X1000

(kagaya sa small soldiers...hehehehe!! computer chips for nuclear bombs)

 

30GB HD

256MB RAM (kulang)

1.3GHz Centrino with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and IRDA

WXGA (widescreen) display

ATI Radeon Mobility 7500

 

Lahat naman ng Compaq laptops ay JBL diba? pero eto, masamalaki yung speakers nasa tabi ng keyboard since masmalapad, 15.5in yung screen. Satisfied lang ako, nag-iipon lang ako ng pera para madagdagan yung memory.

i've a couple of notebooks but this is what i love using...

 

ECS EZ30D Tablet

 

-Transmeta Crusoe 5800 800MHz

-Wi-Fi

 

Although it's not as sound as the other tablets like Acer TM C112TCi which costs around 132K, i'm happy with this gear and it cost me only a shade under 70k. :cool:

i can get any laptop i want and any upgrades, free from my company since im an IT admin. So far this year i have been using the Sony VAIO series but next year i might recommend the ASUS. All i need to do is lodge a claim form and reason why and in 5 days the company orders me one.

Guys I would like to recommend a friends shop if you want to upgrade you notebooks. His Laptop shop is virtually a candy store for laptop afficionados. Its COOLTOYZ at Ashcreek center along ortigas avenue. Think of the best notebook money could buy he' got it! Has refurbished models thats really cheap!

I'm currently using an Apple 12" PowerBook G4 with the following specs:

 

1GHz PowerPC G4

40GB hard drive w/ an external 80GB firewire HDD

768MB DDR SDRAM

32MB video RAM

SuperDrive (DVD-R/CD-RW)

built-in 802.11g and Bluetooth.

 

I'm extremely satisfied with the performance of my laptop and I definitely will not go back to using a PC. No offense meant to all the PC lovers out there but once you've used a Mac I don't think you would want to use a PC again. I've used two different PC laptops before: a Sony Vaio PCG-U1 and an IBM ThinkPad A21m. The Vaio was adorable since it was so small but since it was using a Transmeta Crusoe processor it just couldn't keep up with the work I did with it. The IBM, on the other hand, just died after about three years of use.

 

For those of you who would like to know more about using a Mac I suggest you visit PhilMUG.
