Best Buy is offering an HP Athlon 64 laptop with Geforce 4 ToGo graphics and a 15.4" widescreen. This may be a nForce 3 powered model. They have options to upgrade to a 3200+, 512MB of memory, or Windows XP Pro. You have to configure it and have it delivered as it is not for sale in the store. I'm quite happy with my K8T800 and Radeon 9600 powered Emachines however. |

PC Mag has reviewed the Acer Ferrari 3000 Athlon XP-M laptop. The AMD mobile Athlon XP-M 2500+ and 512MB of RAM provided quite good mainstream performance (as measured by Business Winstone 2004), especially for a system with SXGA+ graphics. (SXGA+ moves almost twice the number of pixels as XGA?1,470,000 versus 786,432, or 187 percent as many.) Multimedia performance was less stellar, however, and may have been adversely affected by the ATI Mobility Radeon 9200 graphics. Battery life was so-so, at 1 hour 36 minutes for a 65-watt-hour, 0.9 pound battery. Wi-Fi throughput was good, showing little falloff up to a distance of 120 feet.
You can pick this bad boy up for as low as $1,749. |
