I'm gettting a new laptop in a couple of weeks I've settled on the Evesham Voyager 64 3000+ atm
http://www.evesham.com/PCs/Info.asp?...3-C93EF2CE3E8D
I intend to upgrade the RAM to 1GB, the CD-RW/DVD Combo Drive to a DVD-RW and the 40GB to a 60Gb drive. What are peoples opinions of this machine?
well that makes the total price £1413.61 if you apply those upgrades
I would say its an ok laptop, but theres a better one :)
http://www.alienware.co.uk/system_pages/area-51m.aspx , their first lappy is a similar price to that one but would be better imho
Alienware Magnesium Alloy Chassis
Pentium® 4 @ 2.8GHz 800FSB
User-Upgradeable Graphics
ATI Mobility Radeon 9600 128MB DDR
16.1" inch UltraXGA 1600x1200 LCD
40GB 5400rpm HDD with 8MB Cache
Infrared Remote control
all customisable but
you get a free t-shirt, free mouse mat and the greatest respect from everyone are you. Its worth the extra money for one, rather than a 'normal' evesham lappy tbh ;) (note the alienware graphics are 'user upgradeable' for this lappy has some degree of future proofing too :) )
Considered a Toshiba lappy? Some of the new ones are pretty powerful and being very slim and portable at the same time, I can vouch for them as I do have one so no bias their eh;D
What about one of these . They get rave reviews :D
Bad move. That chip will run very hot and will also be out performed by the Athlon64 anyway.Quote:

Just make sure you don't buy QUXGA by acident (2048x1536 @ 15.1") :)
