Yep, its a Turion, cant remember which one tho, might hav bin the ML-34, and it was roundabout R19K, i think...

I can get the Gigabyte W511A to u for R12000...

1.73GHz Pentium M
512MB RAM - Dual Channel
60GB Drive
DVD RW Dual Layer
15.4" Widescreen monitor
X700 Radeon Mobility - 128MB
XP Pro
... And lots of other Features

I am also looking for a new notebook so I checked this one out, looks god besides for:

the W511A's fit and finish are less than perfect. Also, battery life is short due in part to the power hungry memory Gigabyte chose to include in the notebook. And, the notebook suffers from a noisy optical drive and cooling system. This noise comes close to overpowering the audio coming out of the speakers, making the W511A best for AV purposes when used with headphones or connected to a home audio-video system.

I concur. Never had a problem of that sort before.

good specs, good price!

 

[ettubrute]

A bit expensive, IMO. After adding only the CPU, you get to R14k! And that's only a 15" WXGA screen, thus resolution is a bit low...

 

[bboy]

wasnt it 12k?

 

[akuma]

wasnt it 12k?

yep. i've got it quoted at that from a couple of sources. i think there's a mistake on comx's web form.

 

[ettubrute]

Without the CPU it's 12k!

 

[Person]

without anything its 0k .... stupid ass answer ther m8

plz note 0k = zeroK not ok .... ok

At least it's a proper widescreen [15.4"] not just a 15" screen.

 

[akuma]

well, it's settled then. i'm going with the MSI.

thanks for the input guys - much appreciated!

 

[rburley]

yeah i think its a good choice
