You have decried the heat and fan noise generated by current top of the line laptop offerings, I merely asked what need you have for the systems you listed. What do you plan to do with the system, the uses you listed don't appear to require the HP outlined. Have you considered that perhaps a slightly older and slightly slower, but much cooler running system, would better meet your needs? Do you plan on using all this power for good? Or will you turn to the dark side? _______________________________________________ Thinkpad mailing list [email protected] http://stderr.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/thinkpad
