XBox, PS2, I can't carry around a TV with me, and I don't want to game on a tiny screen (PSP). Apple has only doubled the PowerBook's system bus speeds since 1998. 82 MHz in 199…

How would that happen though? I pulled the drive out of my Dell laptop. There was no way to format it, as the mini can only hold one drive. When I took my OEM mini drive out and p…

I am using my 1.67 Ultimate to play World of Warcraft. It works fine. But this isn't a Sager super-duper $3,600 + built-for-gaming laptop, so I'm not expecting miracles. It does…

I don't see a humongus difference of the 128 VRAM over the 64 MB GPU, although it is better to get the 128 because there can be noticible differences in games like HALO. http://…
