I think you should go with the silver HP one. It's shiny and you can never go wrong with shiny.
the 2nd link? In terms of performance? is it the best among the 4?
I get permission denied... Because im in the UK? Maybe?
lol Llama I agree shiny is good But no iynfynity... I doubt it is the best in performance
so which one's the best in performance and durability? I really don't care for the looks.
Like I said... I can't view em
Could you give me their names then I'll tell ya
Do you just need the names?
1.HP - Laptop / AMD Athlon™ II Processor / 14" Display / 3GB Memory / 320GB Hard Drive - Biscotti
2.HP - Laptop / AMD Turion™ II Processor / 15.6" Display / 4GB Memory / 320GB Hard Drive - Silver
3.HP - Laptop / AMD Turion™ II Processor / 15.6" Display / 4GB Memory / 320GB Hard Drive - Biscotti
4. Dell - Inspiron Laptop / AMD Athlon™ II Processor / 15.6" Display / 3GB Memory / 320GB Hard Drive - Black
there it is. thanks! tell me if you want me to post the specs.
Spec's wise either 2 or 3 then Although I'm guessing the only difference between those 2 is the colours...
hey thanks for that. I haven't used an AMD processors.

You WILL get the shiny one, no matter how much more it costs, the shiny one is always better than "biscotti"

judging from the pic it's a tall screen you got
other then that i'd sugest rocketdock in someways it's better then objectdock
not that i dont like that one i use both at once
but rocketdock got a stacking option which is a cool rip off of apples leopard's stack
maybe he's got a quad monitor setup stacked on top of each other
i've got duals stacked (i like it better than spread out)
but if i had quads, i'd roll with a 2x2 array
Let me be a little different here. From my EEE PC
It is still running XP
My HDD crashed about a month ago and I havn't really re-installed a lot of my stuff but yea my wallpaper makes up for it

Hello,
Here are a few new renders Ive done for you guys.
This one is based on the Touch HD + the Zune HD, It has the snapdragon processor (1.3), 4gb onboard memory with MicroSD expansion (up to 32gb i believe?) g-sensor, HD FM radio, GPS, plus the usual items found on today's phones, and boasts a WVGA screen and 5mp Camera. Runs either Android Or WM6.5 (not dual booting, ^.^) and not seen in the render but has two external speakers (on the side) for better music and speakerphone quality.
Anyway, enough talk, heres the photos!

No, if you add one good feature, you have to take out another good feature. At least that's what it seems like they do.

I wish HTC would release some phones with nice graphics on, like your wings - swirls - etc.
One thing to remember is all phones now have to have a home and a back key

Heehee my desk is too much of a mess (cleaning lady comes later today though ). Too much 'eyes only' stuff on my desk to take a picture anyways
But as soon as those become public I promise to post a pic of the Desk of Chainfire!
Well... I'm glad I'm the only one not having one of those huge-ass thick wood desks. Do these even exist? Can't seem to find any!

I have enjoyed my X1, probably the best phone I have owned to date.
I have been considering the X2, but stumbled upon the Toshiba TG01

Its got the Qualcomm Snapdragon QSD2850, 1 GHz processor on board.
Any thoughts on Toshiba or should I stick with X2 when it arrives...?
hm... HTC Leo
I'd have to say LEO as well.
I have expressed my opinion on the matter many times. TG01 SUCKS.
....peeps I had great hopes for the Leo, but it has a capacitive screen...nuff said.
Being pro resistive and anti capacitive is as silly as being pro capacitive and anti resistive. They have their own uses and it's only smart to know what you can do with either.
Of course the next complaint will be the lack of keyboard.

Why is that? Acer F1 has 256 mb onboard.
get an x2 or wait till something better comes out.
htc leo looks like crap but has good hardware.
tg01 looks like crap and has crap software. also i dont think they have used the hardware to maximize the hardware it has.
x2 has old cpu with some new stuff added but looks the best by far and has a keyboard. also the software looks very good but will have to wait for a good hands on to be sure.
Must admit, the more I look at the X2, the more I like.
Was just curious about the TG01.
Howdy!
So heres the story, I currently own an early 2011 17" MacBook Pro with an 2.2 Ghz i7 Processor. Recently I've had an itch for a 27" iMac but the buffed version is well beyond my budget. So I had another idea, what if I sell my MBP for say ~1.5k and use that money to build a custom PC with similar specs of the 27" iMac. However as many people might know already, Apple released their new line of retina display MBP's in which they also discontinued the 17".
My particular MBP model happened to be the second to last model they sold so technically speaking, its not incredibly outdated compared to other 17" PC's in the market.
Here's where you guys come in. I have consulted with my family in the matter and all in all, they are very against my idea in saying that it would be a waste of money. Here's a few questions if you guys would be kind enough to give me your sincere opinion (Please leave the fanboyism out of this):
1) Since the 17" MBP was discontinued, do you see it rising in price due to its "rarity" or depreciating due to the new hardware in the new line of MBP's
2) Whats a realistic amount to ask for my 17" MBP (Full specs below)? The computer is in LN (Like New) condition I should add.
3) Anything else I should consider?
Specs:
Hard Drive: 750GB 5400 RPM
Display: 17" High-Res Glossy Display

Oh wait, I forgot to mention that I would be installing OSX since I myself love OSX while the Windows 7 partition would serve for gaming and such.
High five then! Go hackint0sh! Go ahead then, build it. Give it Lion, and you will be happy! Apple ain't that great but, OS X is boss. I'm a hackint0sh-er myself

I have built many hackintoshs and many many more pcs, it is definitely the way to go.

Tech value will only go down (at least until it becomes Antique but I doubt you want to sit on a computer for 20+ years). As far as asking price you should probably shoot for roughly 1/3 to 1/2 of what you paid for it since it's in LN condition.
