I have a couple questions about other options.... Is it worth it to upgrade the batter to the 9 cell for $99? Can I hook up a 2001fp and run multimonitor with the video card i have? is the 60gb 7200rpm worth the $150 upgrade? Much thanks. |

Re: Evaluate my prospective laptop
I cannot speak to the technical questions you raised, but I can tell you that having just received my 9300 yesterday, I am very impressed with this machine. The screen real estate in particular is amazing.

Re: Evaluate my prospective laptop
i recently purchased a 9300 and am awaiting its arrival.
go with the cheapest RAM option and upgrade it yourself. go with the cheapest HD and upgrade yourself to 7200 rpm. that is what i have done, but i upgraded the video card to the 128MB x300. but i believe both can drive an external 2001FP, but you should have someone else verify this. my final price shipped was just under 900. |
