Almost identical to my laptop, must be from the same manufacturer. Only difference is not having a built in wifi adapter although I have the button for it on the front of the laptop. Also the weight quoted is .325 of a kilo heavier than mine.
Nice to see what kind of results it gets in tests though as it's not something I do much any more. It runs all the games I need without any problems so haven'tbothered benchmarking it. Good review though, just wish mine looked as pretty, it's a nice silver imac style shell instead but the red does look good

No the Evesham version identical to both the voodo and time in almost every respect though. I went for the 3Ghz model with 1gig of ram, 60gig HDD and DVD-RW but it was under £1500
Also I think I may have spotted a minor error ![]() "The PCMCIA slot's blank cover has been left in that horrible shade of beige. We'd have hoped that Voodoo PC would have given it the matching paint treatment. There's also a removable 2x DVD-R drive, 2x USB 2.0 and 2x FireWire ports on the right-hand side. " Is it me or are those "firewire" ports actually a modem and network socket? On my laptop which seems to be identical they are and i can just amke out the network and modem symbols. ![]() If you look at this picture the firewire port is quite different
