Am I the only one who thinks

Am I the only one who thinks it's goofy they're calling this a "high definition notebook." Barring the fact that compared to standard NTSC video, all modern computer displays are "high definition," they could at least use the descriptor on displays with full HD support --1920x1080. Sure this notebook supports 720P video at 1280x720, but so do most laptops from the last four years, when the prevailing resolution was 1280x800. I guess that it is 16:9 rather than 16:10, so some content will not have black bars.

I had to laugh at the 'Pentium' remark, I thought it was a Penryn?

Great For Light Duties

Submitted by WolfdaleX86 on Fri, 03/06/2009 - 10:11pm

This laptop is certainly no desktop replacement for those power users on the move but it should be great for lighter duties that say a college student or the average user would need it for. With the Intel GMA 4500M (not so extreme) graphics hardware acceleration you should even be able watch HD content with it, but how hard would that T4200 have to work to make that happen? Also it's kind of funny that "Pentium" Dual-Core T4200 is Penyrn based.
