Advantages: Very hot - great if you are in a cold climate Disadvantages: Overheats
...Pros: Nice big screen, fast processor. When you pump it up to 1GB RAM it works quite well
You can put your coffee cup next to the cooling fan outlet and keep your coffee warm for hours. Great in cold climates.
It's got the IBM logo on the outside. Now that I know that IBM stands for "Its a Broken Machine" I'm no longer as thrilled. I am retiring the machine as a LAMP server and have moved my Windows apps to my Acer replacement laptop.
Cons:
The hard drive died within a week of using it. It was replaced under warranty, but they installed the wrong OS. When the correct OS was installed, it came with free spyware.
18 months later this laptop still overheats terribly, and the IBM workshop took 4 weeks to "fix" it and there is no improvement whatsoever. It's a terrible design flaw, and totally overpriced. I am using a replacement laptop...

Advantages: BETTER PERFORMANCE/ RELIABILITY Disadvantages: A LITTLE LOUDER ON THE FAN/COOLING
...I HAVE BEEN USING PENTIUM PROCESSORS FOR MANY YEARS NOW AND HAVE FOUND THEM TO BE BOTH RELIABLE AND GOOD AT WHAT THEY DO. I HAVE RECENTLY UP-GRADED TO A NEW PENTIUM III 450 HTZ PROCESSOR AND I AM VERY IMPRESSED BY IT'S PERFORMANCE. I THOUGHT LONG AND HARD BEFORE BUYING MY NEW MACHINE AND LOOKED AT THE DIFFERENT PROCESSORS AVAILABLE ON THE MARKET. I SOUGHT ADVICE FROM FRIENDS AND COLLEAGUES WITH OTHER PROCESSORS AND DECIDED TO STICK WITH THE PENTIUM. I CAN HEARTILY RECCOMMEND IT FOR SPEED AND RELIABILITY. COMBINED WITH 128M R.A.M AND A DECENT GRAPHICS BOARD I NOW HAVE A TOP-NOTCH SYSTEM. I HAVE HALVED MY PROCESSING TIME SINCE BUYING THE NEW P111....
