Super light, small ultraportable machine

Strengths: 1. small. 2. light. 3. Include DVD writer. 4. Good assemble quality. 5. Long battery life. 6. Thin 7. Make you become a careful person... Haha, it is a good thing, isn't it?

Weakness: 1. Max memory up to 1.5G only. 2. Expensive but worth it. no more

In this laptop, 512MB of ram is burned on on the mother board, and there is only slot available. Although this laptop is using 945 chip set, but I tried Kingston 2GB sodimm and not working, so I only install up to 1.5GB of RAM. I do suggest people buy a WinXP version, the WinXP runs smooth on this machine. I think the Vista will be very slow on this machine.

Toshiba Portégé R500

One look at the Toshiba Portégé R500 and you know you're in the presence of a breakthrough. Weighing a mere 2.4 pounds, this notebook has all of the makings of a true no-compromise ultraportable. The silver magnesium-alloy chassis is sophisticated chic, and we love the full-sized keyboard that doesn't waste even a centimeter of surrounding space. This superthin, superlight machine is easy to...
