Whazuuuup Alex!!!
Long time no "see"!

I have been looking today and there are some great machines under $1600, Compaqs, Sonys, Toshibas and HPs.


We are doing well, sales are a little bit down but great new products are pumping up everything again.
Lots of work, new projects and a second conference call next week for possible full time new job in FL.
For that conference, they want to use NetMeeting, do you have experience with it?, I have avoided NM and IM as I have confidencial data at home, so, after clean it up, I'm going to connect one of my PCs directly to my DSL, configure NM and play with it a little bit. Any advise?

Saludos a Susy, I hope you are doing great too.

Agustin.

>I bought this one last year for about $3000. For some reason it was discontinued even though it's a great machine.

>We needed another laptop for Susy and just bought the same model - any current comparable model is over $2500.00.

>The screen is 13.3" (1024x768), which is quite acceptable - I'm using it A LOT for development.

>In case it helps, the battery charge lasts a bit over 3 hours (almost as advertised).
>
>Things I don't like about it: just 1 USB port. Parallel, Serial, and PS-2 (mouse or keyboard) are on a little replicator.

>Other than that, I'm VERY pleased with this machine.

>>It looks as it's time to buy a new laptop, looking at the pictures of WhilFest I saw some very nice ones, it looked as Hector Correa's had the biggest screen of all. :)
>>
>>I'm planning to spend up to $1500, what is the best one for those bucks?
>>It don't care about brand names but features.
