Primary Firestorm Ultra Slim CDRW

Advantages: Are there any Good Brand Image
Disadvantages: The size weight and power use

...if you go for the cDRW combo option, if you need a reliable system this is it, but dont expect to be able to use it for portability, I also am a computer engineer and use laptops to set up and config other systems, belive me fot this you are talking about ultra light notebooks to walk around with so Dell would not be my first stop. So its price and realibility against Size and weight.... Read review

Advantages: Amazing looks, great battery life, decent performance
Disadvantages: Small touchpad, not as fast as other bigger models

...feel cramped when trying to type. I have quite large fingers and usually find the small laptops (and fold-out keyboards for PDAs) very difficult to use but I had no issue with this laptop whatsoever. Above the excellent screen, which churns out a crisp 1,280x768 resolution, is a little camera that is capable of filming full-motion video or still pictures. On the front you’ll find a wireless on/off button as well as a slot for either a Memory Stick or an external DVD/CDRW drive.

Advantages: Simply the Best Scsi Cdrw on the market
Disadvantages: None

The ultra reliability of this piece of equipment is due to Yamaha's use of high quality parts and the usual high standard of build quality that we are so accustomed to from this company. The high capacity buffer combined with the excellent electronics make this drive a winner, it does what it is supposed to do...write perfect cd's, and that's all we want from a cdrw, to be ultra reliable, stable writing, and basically to produce the end result, a perfect cd, over and over again. In my opinion this is The best Scsi Cdrw on the market today, and you can be rest assured... Read review
