I thought I got a pretty good deal!

I'm going to be replacing my C2 with this :)

The Toughbook addiction struggle continues!

I want, I want, I want one, but I need one, really, it's for school, so I can study and get into college for free so you wont have to pay, its saving you money in the long run, cause Sophie has one, and Rob has one, Well, mommy would buy it for me if she were here, I guess she loves me better.

Just though I'd use my kids approach and see if it helped. NOPE

congrats on your new candy^H^H^H^Homputer :)
enjoy & keep us posted :D

later edit: why do they (Panasonic Configurator) still list it as XGA, when it's WUXGA ?

did it come with 480GB SSD ?

that would be a "hard" switch - it's mSATA format :P

I am sure it would fit with a hammer, lol.

It would be a easy fit on my end as they make dual msata to 2.5" sata adapters

On one of the new gaming laptops I have been considering is the MSI GS70. It has three Msata in raid plus a 2.5" HD. 900 plus MB/s transfer speed on crystaldiskmark.
