Productivity can be increased further by replacing yelow/green LED's with blue, and a recent study also disproved the theory that cutting big holes in the side of your PC only leads to distraction. It is recommended that at least 60% of a companies annual IT budget is used for case modification and the purchase of styley gaming machines.

| 122163 | 2003-02-18 03:20:00 | To increase productivity with computers: (1) Open the window. (2)Throw all computers out window. (3)Sit down, and start working. There's a very good Dilbert strip about computer productivity. |

| 122164 | 2003-02-18 03:25:00 | What has happened to Toshiba they used to be the laptop leaders? | OldEric (3062) | ||
| 122165 | 2003-02-18 09:10:00 | Tosh arnt that bad. My first of the 4 are tosh. To me, they are keyboard messy, nice designs and quality, durability, lack of support being a leader ...., avg i put it. Service and web support is not 1st class for a 1st class former brand. They are pricey .... even vs IBM despite which series it is. Rayonline |

| 122166 | 2003-02-18 09:25:00 | We have all sorts at work, compaq, acer, ibm, dell, toshiba, power books. Toshiba are easily the best for reliability and battery life. The IBMs have crap ergonomics and styling. The acer are all round crap. The Compaqs and dells have very high failure rates; -dell are great with their warrantee support though..... the power books on the other hand are pretty cool and I wouldn't mind one, however they arn't very cheap! :-) |

| 122167 | 2003-02-18 10:44:00 | I am the proud owner of a Toshiba satellite 1800 running windows ME. I was so pleased with its performance that I got rid of a desktop that had twice the specs that the laptop had. I have had no problems with the hardware or any major problems with the OS and 99% of crashes came from software. I am in the process of buying a older Toshiba laptop to tinker around on. So don't discount Toshiba. |

| 122168 | 2003-02-18 17:47:00 | H'mm thought Toshiba would still be the best. You'e right about the poor backup, its the same with all their products. But what price reliability? Mines a Toshiba too |

| 122169 | 2003-02-19 00:48:00 | yeah, sorry about not menchining my budget, its gonna be from 2,500-3,000 $$$ | Jams (1051) | ||
| 122170 | 2003-02-19 01:20:00 | You really can't go wrong with an ASUS notebook. They are one of the largest manufacturers of notebook motherboards in the universe and they are priced pretty nicely too! I think the PC Company still sells ASUS notebooks under their badge but I might be wrong. I dod buy one from them last year which is the ASUS L8400K - a PIII 850 which is still a very nice notebook. Have a look at the PC Co. (www.thepccompany.co.nz). They are good value for money. I think people need to start looking outside of the so-called 'big brands' as component pricing becomes more competitive. Anyway...that is my 2 cents! Matt |
