Hello friends,
I am planning to buy a Notebook and need some help from you experts.
Best buy is selling Medion - 2200+ Notebook for 899 with about 265 in mail in rebates.
Has anyone used this brand before. It's new in US but has been around in europe for quite some time.
This notebook with te three year performance plan will be about 850.
The other option is Compaq - Presario Notebook with Intel® Centrino™
This one will be close to 1100 with the three year performance plan.
Planned use:
mostly to be used by my wife when I am using the desktop at home. But I woul be doing presentations and graphics intensive work on it as well when I am using it.
The medion has the following things less than Compaq:
AMD Vs Centrino
30 gig Vs 40gig
PCIMCI card neede Vs wireless ready
14.1" Vs 15.4"
128KB L1 cache + 512KB L2 Vs 1.0MB on die Level 2
S3 Savage 8 GFX (UMA) Vs ATI Mobility RADEON 9200
Everything else is pretty much identical.
128KB L1 cache + 512KB L2 Vs 1.0MB on die Level 2 What exactly does this mean in speed and multi tasking.
Thanking you all in advance.
Akshay
