And it’s freakin sweet. It’s kind of weird how orz got his computer around the same time I didI actually got this yesterday, but it took me too long to transfer all of my files to new laptop from my old Sony Viao. I was using my two 1GB memory sticks with the File and Settings Trasnfer Wizard. Ah, such a pain. My new lappy is an Alienware.

Here are the specs:

• Windows XP Media Center Edition plus a USB TV tuner and remote
• Intel Core 2 Duo 7600
• 17″ WideUXGA 1920 x 1200 LCD
• 2GB Dual Channel DDR2 SO-DIMM at 667MHz - 2 x 1024MB
• 160GB (80GB x 2) Serial ATA 1.5Gb/s 7,200 RPM w/ NCQ & 8MB Cache (RAID 0)
• 256MB ATI Mobility Radeon® X1800

I’ve really realized how mch impact my processor and my extra GB of RAM makes when I deal with scans. My old desktop (a P4 2.4 GHz) and the Viao I was borrowing (PentiumM 2.2 Ghz,) both with 1 GB of memory, both stuttered when I was dealing with scans at 1200 dpi. With this comp, I can open those files with an image editor in about 1 or 2 seconds. I haven’t tried out any games with this laptop yet (I didn’t bring enough PC games with me,) but I will be sure to make a post about it when I do. Maybe I’ll add pics later ,but for now,later.
