The 7500 comes with a 15.5" screen at 1280x1024, or a 15.1" screen at 1400x1050. Nobody else is currently actually shipping screens this large. (IBM were offering a 770Z with a 1280x1024 screen, but they couldn't deliver when I ordered one.) The i7500 is also giving me the best part of 5 hours out of a single battery (more like 4 if I have something like a world build running). Given that it can take two at a time, and you can swap them while it's going, I'm very happy with it in it's role as principal work machine. -- \\ Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. \\ Mike Smith \\ Tell him he should learn how to fish himself, \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ and he'll hate you for a lifetime. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
