yea, too bad you don't run on linux too. eh?

[Andrei Vassiliev @ Mar 1st 2007 11:37PM]

As much as I love linux, it's truly not the gaming OS. And unless Microsoft makes DirectX open source (haha, doubt it), it will stay that way.

$400 for an extra gig of RAM, jesus!

The $400 difference between the two high-end versions is not just a megabyte. The lower-priced variant has two 512mb RAM modules, while the higher has two 1024mb modules. Looking at the PDF specs on Toshiba's site you'll discover that a pair of 2048mb modules can be installed to have a 4gb RAM laptop... I'd be more worried about the system not having a 7200 rpm HD than the price of additional RAM (it ships with a 5400rpm unit).
