Reputation: 2162 Rep Power: 56 | Well... I have one and it's great so far. Actually I haven't much experience with NEC. But I wouldn't recommend it, except if you buy it from Japan coz the QA there is tighter.

Reputation: 253 Rep Power: 7 | the first thing i notice with this 65nm technology is there is almost no heat at all.. put it on my lap for almost 1 hour just feel warm.. or maybe its my lap.. and its noiseless too.. the cpu exhaust fan, i haven't notice it spin because of heat.. on the same day me and my gf bought this, i have to setup two other laptop (one is Compaq Presario V4000T and one is BenQ whatever  ).. and the speed different is huge .. i haven't tweak the registry yet.. the windows login bar was running for one time only.. (the black screen with WindowsXP word on it).. hard for me to see other laptop running that fast around.. or maybe i haven't working with a laptop for a long time.. and one more question, is intel core duo is 64bit? cannot find in intel website that tells me about it..

Reputation: 2958 Rep Power: 65 | Wah.. Damn nice!!!! Wish I could afford a new laptop too. Forget about 64-bits. You don't need it unless you need more than 4GB of RAM!! Seriously, I would worry more about the graphics processor, rather than the 64-bit capability of any GPU. When Vista comes along, you will need a 3D graphics processor of sufficient power to fully support its features.
