Horrible display quality
Review of HP Compaq Mobile Workstation 8710w by suchcoder

Advantages: Thin, light, tightly built
Disadvantages: Very poor screen that malkes this laptop useless.

...in my life. HP support replaced the screen - same thing. The problem is with the screen - not with the driver or graphics card. This laptop has "the best" 17" WUXGA anti-glare non-glossy display HP has to offer + NVIDIA Quadro 1600 graphics card with 512MB memory. Tried several drivers - same horrible quality. When attached to external monitor looks fine. But if I have to have an external monitor, - why use laptop? This is especially frustrating ...
...this laptop is touted by HP as ideal for 2D/3D graphics design and modeling. Nothing could be further from the truth. This is simply false advertisement on HP part. HP on-site "next day" "business critical" is support simply horrific. It took two weeks for the person to appear on site (he was supposed to be there next day after I reported the problem according to on-site service contract), did not fix the problem (well the problem is not fixable ...

The Black Beauty - The Macbook
Review of Apple MacBook Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz - 13.3" TFT by kaush6667

Advantages: User-friendly, easy-to-use, affordable
Disadvantages: 13.3" may be small for those primarily interested in DVD viewing

After switching from a Windows-PC to this wonderful laptop, I have decided to never go back. This easy-to-use, portable, durable, user-friendly computer is meant for all ages, all professions, and all types of work, entertainment, and socializing. The Macbook is meant for those who are either new with contemporary computers, but is still compatible for the experts. And with programs such as Garageband, iTunes, Safari, your musical entertainment is ...
...expose, keeping your work organized is never easier. And if you are still worried about switching from a Windows you may want to keep these in mind: You can run a windows system on your mac, which I believe works better than a windows on an actual PC. Two, Windows PCs can get viruses, macs do not. Students enjoy staying on top of your work, musicians enjoy creating your own music, and for those who work enjoy having your work successfully completed ... Read review

Advantages: small to carry,convenient for business.runs well.

I bought a dell vostro1400 this sunmmer.I love it very much!In China,I believe vostro 1400 is the only substitute of IBM.cos it has most of the advantages which IBM had.Compared to some Chinese laptops,vostro is definetely an American style one.it has black cover,like thinkpad,and some touch icons which is like HP.It's wide screen is good to enjoy some wonderful movies after one day work .The DVDr/w driver is useful for me to copy some data.Cos it's ...
