When are cell phones and cameras going to FINALLY catch up to this stuff man. Cell phones, cameras and other storage needing devices should TOTALLY be using flash drives STANDARD by now… Or at least, for the most part, standard. I suppose they want that extra buck in proprietary storage - that gets outdated after a few years, renders the phone, camera, or other device useless by modern standard. You know, the usual.

I agree:
1- Lenovo notebooks are supperior.
2- The flash HD great idea fo notebooks.
and for $21250 I can buy an used 2006 Accord V6Hybrid w/NAV and a really nice Lenovo notebook for my video editting.
3- Fact is we are consumers of a huge consumer market based market, we look weight our options, look at the price and choose to buy something based on what our values are.
but “I’m preaching at the choir”, right?
so unless we are holed up in some cave like cavemen or farm like the first agrarian humans. we’ll be buying and arguing who has the best based on our values.
Anything else?…..
P.S. watch “who killed the electric car”, couldn’t buy one (lease only), and that only in California. What happened to the cars after? Who got paid off?

The only reason Dave thinks macbooks are filth is because ol’ Davy boy hasn’t taken the time or expended the energy to discern that Apple makes a better, more reliable and in the end more cost-effective computer and operating system. Much like how the average driver of gasoline automobiles hasn’t expended the energy or put in the time to discern that electric vehicles are more reliable, cost-effective, safer and environmentally un-paralleled. Of course, it’s also because Dave is susceptible to doing what other people tell him to, buying what advertising wants him to. Which makes Dave a cunt.
Of course, the fact that I, a stranger from nowhere, would call Dave a cunt on a forum makes me a cunt. so does the fact that I didn’t bother reading all the forum posts before typing this. And so does the fact that I drive a gasoline powered car.
‘Fact, face it -we’re all cunts.

“Say something incredibly witty, insightful, or l33t” = PHP with MySQL running from a flashdrive (or on a computer) without IIS installed. Possible? Yes, SSD is going to rock once it is out on the main market.

Exactly. And the writer of this article looks a real dumbass when he said “But it’d be perfect for the military…”
Jesus, how naive can you get. The ‘military’ is, at a bare minimum, 10 years ahead in this particular field.
Nice piece of hardware though.

What makes you think that the military doesn’t already use these? Don’t forget - the original pentuim was an old processor that the military no longer needed. I would not be suprised if the military had something to do with the creation of such a beast.

All we can hope for is that the military will buy a crazy large amount of these so that we can see the pricing go down to an affordable one.

I have a c2d macbook for home. I also have a lenovo c2d for work (as well as a dell but lets not talk about that).

I like OSX a lot. I wish I could run it on Lenovo hardware, though. I have used most major laptop brands (Toshiba, HP, Sony, Dell, IBM/Lenovo and Apple). I have a lot of computers.

In my opinion the only two laptop brands for hardware that stand out are Lenovo and Toshiba. Whenever I am in a position to recommend hardware to a client I recommend Lenovo laptops. If you are a touch typist the keyboard alone will convert you. Everything else feels cheap by comparison.

The Apple laptops are slightly above middling for hardware. I love OSX for personal use but Apple hardware is only ok.
