So my 3ghz G40 wasn't cutting it anymore. My work now requires alot of remote desktop & VNC work, onto PC's that are at 1280x1024... And when you are tunneling connections, and your laptop only goes up to 1024x768... It starts sucking QUICK...
So I told I.T. I needed something with Power like my G40, but higher resolution...
This is what they gave me...
HP Compaq NX9600
P4 HT 3.6Ghz
1GB DDR SDRAM
100GB Hard Drive
ATi Radeon Mobility x600 Video w/ 64MB RAM
DVD/RW
GigaBit Ethernet/802.11b/g/Bluetooth (I think)/56k Modem
Built in 6 in 1 Media Card Reader
FULL SIZE KEYBOARD WITH NUMBER PAD!! (Ever seen that in a laptop?)
4 USB Ports / 1 Firewire Port
HP USB Digital Drive
17" Widescreen with Glass Front running at 1650x1050 resolution...
Big enough for ya?
Next to a Yuengling for size reference...
The only downfalls... 90 minute battery lifespan (2nd Battery On Order), and just shy of 10lbs not including power supply...
