Yep. This is being written on an EliteBook 8740w (17.3" 1920x1200); it's roughly comparable to a MacBook Pro (quad i7 processors, memory up to either 16GB or 32GB, depending on who you ask). Windows 7 Pro. My previous two machines were both HP laptops (one XP/32, one XP/64), and I got over 10 years of use out of them. The weak point, in each case, was the display. But then, what do I know? I've also got a house full of Sony A/V kit, some of which is over 20 years old; the only thing which is coming to the end of its life is the projection TV, and that's got to be around 10 years old. It could be fixed, but a new flat screen would almost certainly cost less, and offer me more (such as HDMI, for one thing). -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
