Staples - Tecra M9 - $697

[dgs]

I keep looking at this laptop and thinking that despite the little HD (80Gb), it's a pretty good price for a corporate machine with 3 year warranty and a T7250 in it - just needs a little memory adding (only 1Gb included).

To add (from notebookreview.com):

While running PCMark05 exhaust temperatures reached a record 150 degrees

:eek:

[spiralspirit]

if its 150 celsius, then the machine should have shut itself down long before that.

if its 150 f, then thats about 65 celsius which is damn hot but not outside the parameters for the cpus operation.

yes you are right... after looking at the page there are two laptops with same model number but different product code.

this has only 1gb of ram as per your correction.

That's the AIR coming out the side, man that thing could double as a central heating unit in an office tower. Or you could use it to shrink down heat shrink tubing or dry your hair, bake muffins, the possibilities are endless!

then does that make this a "hot" item?
