Agentless Backup is Not a Myth

In PCMark05, the 2GHz Core 2 Duo T6400 returned a score of 4977 in the CPU test. However, slightly under par scores in the Memory, Graphics and HDD tests meant the overall PCMark05 score was a little lower than expected at 3741. It's nothing to get too het up about, though, and the R522 coped with Vista's demands admirably.

There were no surprises in 3DMark06 – the integrated graphics keeping scores just below the 1000 mark when run at the R522's native resolution, which is in line with other Intel GMA 4500MHD-driven laptops and means 3D gaming is a no-no.

"I can only assume you (the Mr. Stapley) have no clue about PC/Laptop hardware."

What if it costs more for draft-n and less for a smaller CAPACITY hard drive. The physical size is identical, of course, but the costs balance out. Typically a hard drive's capacity is referred to as "size" so young Mr Stapley's suggestion is indeed valid.

"32 bit or 64 bit"

When was the last time you saw 3.5GB of ram in a laptop? Never? Would you rather the laptop only have 2GB and screw over the the power-user that wishes to upgrade to 64-bit or Win7? Indeed.

32 bit or 64 bit ?

If this is 32 Bit vista, what is the point of 4 Gb of memory ?

reducing the size of the hard drive?

Did I actually read that correctly?

"would have been better off reducing the size of the 320GB hard drive in order to accommodate 802.11n Wi-Fi....."

Since laptop hard drives are all the same size physically I guess you would rather go without a hard drive at all? Also since the chip that physically controls which wifi protocol is used is on a chip installed to the mini-pci slot on the bottom of the laptop.. and that they are also a standard size and shape.. I can only assume you (the Mr. Stapley) have no clue about PC/Laptop hardware.
