Huhh... it sounds good. Maybe the best is if you have a fast PC at home, and to use a small and slower Sub-Notebook, for works on the "road".

thats what I have been thinking since any laptop (in a good size) wont be able to do what I do on my desktop, like multiple programs running along w/ photoshop cs,dreamweaver,ftp clients etc.. I am thinking about getting a nice small laptop and beefing up my 2.5Ghz computer.

Thats a sweet laptop, I like the camera. But its a little outa my price range. I ended up getting an Averatec 2100 series notebook. Has Amd 64 1.6ghz cpu, 80gb hd, 512mb 333 ram(going to have 2gb soon), cd/dvd-rw dual layer burner, 12" widescreen display, bluetooth, and ATI Radeon Express 200m. The thing is tiny only weights like 4lbs to its what i wanted. I used my desktop for the powerful things. I think it just came out actually, I got it at Costco for 999.99. Check it out:

Jason,
I am a BF2 player as well. [AGB]-=Revenge=- is my play name. Our AntiClan is located at www.agbgaming.com . Maybe I will copy my BF2 install to my Vista system and give it a try.

Hey guys

I'm new here, followed a link from a post on BF2TRACKER. I've been toying with VB2 here for just over a week and must say I'm very impressed by this OS on every count. Not only does the GUI make me drool but the power of this platform is truely a wonder.

I've run a few benchmarks and thought I'd let you see the results.

Test Rig :

Asus A8N-SLi DELUXE

AMD3500+

2GB TWINMOSS DDR400

GAINWARD 7800GTX 256MB

This is all runnin' largely untweaked with stock G-card clocks due to NVIDIA's lack of clock control in 88.61 for VB2.
