Advantages: High Spec, Powerful, Comfortable to use, System management Disadvantages: Small touch pad, poor mouse buttons, poor sound from speakers
...'t try to watch a good movie unless you're using headphones or plugged into an external speaker system.
Connectivity - The Laptop I am using has a built in 56k modem, wifi enabled, bluetooth, ethernet connection and firewire. There is a button to disable the wireless connections (wifi and Bluetooth).
The CD tray is actually a double layer DVD burner, maybe a little overkill for a laptop in my opinion, but handy to have I suppose.
Now, from what I gather, this laptop has a 1.8Ghz Intel CoreDuo processor, 512Mb ram, A GE Force graphics card and an 80 Gb hard drive. I have to say I have played a couple of games including FIFA07, Deer Hunter and Settlers 2 and they've ran well, very well. I don't sopend a lit of time playing games though so can't give a good review of the graphics card. I'm currently working on some web stuff...

Advantages: Very Fast, Stock fan is not too loud Disadvantages: Further overclocking would require a better fan
...This is the fastest standard Intel Core2Duo you can buy, the E6850 has a 333Mhz FSB which is 1,333Mhz Effective so it has more memory bandwidth than its descendants.
The E6850 has a VID of 1.35V most of the time (some of them have a VID of 1.3v although it's uncommon) and runs slightly hotter than a E6750 with a VID of 1.3, during my tests I also noticed it is harder to overclock than an E6750 but only by a small amount, me getting the clock speeds of the E6850 up to 3.45Ghz while I managed to get the E6750 up to just under 3.65Ghz, this was just with the boxed fans that came with the processors, although if you bought custom coolers, you would get much better.
Conclusion:
While I could not get it to overclock as high as an E6750 in my tests, you could easily reach over 4Ghz if you bought good enough cooling for it, however...

Advantages: Dual core processor,13.3 inch tft screen,stylish design Disadvantages: Quite expensive for home use but great for buisnessmen.
...Apple MacBook Core2Duo2.2GHz - 13.3" TFT
This is a great laptop from the brand apple that broughts us the ipod and iphone products.This is a apple macbook which runs on apple's own runing stystem and dosn't use the classic microsoft software or programmes.
This laptop has a huge 13.3 inch tft screen which is big for a portable laptop. It has built in coreduo technology ehich means that the computer has 2 processor chips causing the computer to run alot faster and smother than normal.
There is 1gb ddr 11 ram built in and a massive 160gb hhd hard drivbe which means you can store a lot of music,videos,files and software on the computers hhd.
The macbook apple laptop looks very nice with its great design and style.The shell colour black make this pc stand out and it looks very modern.
Thanks for viewing this product

As a gamer, I needed the best processor out there. Searching around, the only real debate in this price range was whether to go for the E6850, a dual core CPU, or the Q6600, a quad core at a lower clock. After looking at many different benchmarks and... more

I use alot CPU stressing... more
This E6750 is the processor running in my computer as I write this review. In my opinion I couldn't have chosen a better CPU for what I was looking for. I was looking to spend around 200 USD for a processor and I wanted it to be very powerful so that I... more
