Just trying to see what the majority of Sharky users run for their laptop. I run a Sony Vaio and love it! :)
My good 'ol trusty refurb Dell Latitude is working well for me (it's a great portable DivX playa ;)
Dell C-600 750 P-III and a HP 1210 AMD XP 1400
I have a Compaq Evo N610c with all the bells and whistles. :)
I still have a mostly dead IBM ThinkPad 600. :(
Compaq Evo N160, belongs to my place of employment but since I use it all the time we'll consider it mine ;)
it's a very restricted poll. could have added IBM and Compaq/HP to the list. After all they are big laptop manufactuers too. Even though I have a dell ;)
IBM ThinkPad 600E & Dell Inspiron 4100. (I've also got a dead Sony Vaio 505G, but figured that didn't count.)
I have a toshiba but I also mess with TiBooks and iBooks a lot. They run linux fast as hell.
Sorry, if a moderator would like to add those 2 options than that would be fine. :) i just figured a lot more people would have used Dell. Ohh well, I guess I should have added IBM. So far I am 0/3 in polls at Sharky :)Quote:

I fixed the poll and moved 2 votes from other (mine & muisejt) to HP/Compaq.
well I've used a few Dells in my day and I would have to say I like these Compaq Evo's better, thin, light and powerfull. one little draw back is no serial port so you would have to cart around a port replicator if you need to configure routers and switches. other than that I think I would buy an Evo over a Dell if I was in the market for a laptopQuote:

My N610c has headphone, mic, serial, parallel, IR, video, svideo, 2 USB, 2 pccard, USB in LCD cover for wireless, phone and mouse/keyboard ports as well as the port replicator and multibay.
the N160 has headphone, mic, 1394 (4-pin), parallel, s-video, video, 2 USB, modem, NIC all on the back. if they would have put the audio connectors on the side instead (speakers are in front) they could of squeezed a serial port in
I wish mine had a firewire port. My TV has 3 of them, but my PCs have none.
a chunky *** compaq presario 1694 with an AMD k6-2 with 64mb of sdram! :eek: i guess the 14.1" screen and the DVD drive are the only pluses ;) and guess what? i'm typing on it right now! stupid computer died on me :mad:
