Core2 DUO 2GB Ram Laptop

[Clippy]

I have an IBM Lenovo T42 and the one thing that bugs the arse clean off me is the lack of a windows button......

I know its a small thing - it's amazing how relient you become on it though

I'd imagine, this aside, Lenovo haven't changed the IBM laptops much.
i.e. same quality, functionality, usability etc.

No they haven't. It IS a reasonably good machine, not the flashiest.

I've had to do a complete rebuild once in a year and it was after a fairly long period of inactivity, so that isn't too bad IMHO.

Just as well I back up though, cos that bloo screen o' death is a nightmare.

I appear to have strayed into a strange world where people think Dell laptops suck and HP laptops are fine, so I'll shut up and leave now!

HP laptops are utter tulipe. This piece of crap I'm working on now won't boot with the battery plugged in. One other in the project team has failed completely (motherboard fried), another exhibits the same symptoms as mine.

I am seriously considering getting the IT gents to create a clone of my hard drive on a firewire disk so I can use it with Parallels on my Macbook

I agree. I have XP installed in a dual boot on my MacBook Pro...just so I can play CNC3 and it works great.

I do all real work on the MAC OS X tho...I know it is not gonna crash...;-)

I'll 2nd that. My vaio has already crashed more times than I care to remember, another update, are you sure you want to quit? etc etc that mac on the other hand, never a problem as I can recall,,,
