About Mine

This laptop is very thick and heavy - even thicker than the Olivetti and the Compaq LTE on top of eachother! I personally really like this laptop as, amazingly, the battery still holds a charge and can run the laptop for about 1 hour. I also fully upgraded the RAM and installed Windows XP as well as Windows 98. It's very useful as it has lots of ports - including a USB port - and a CD drive. This makes it ideal for testing accessories and things. This is also great for playing old games as it's quite powerful and can run newer 3D games like NFS 2.
