Great review! Inimitable style.. loved it.. and remembered why I used to read a t MS, your reviews were one of the few reasons! regs, Mohan

Dear Qwan, a pleasure to hear from you. Sorry for the very late reply.Mangaluroo hege ithe? Hope all is well with you. Always use tubular batteries with your inverter, they last for twice as long.APC as a company, sucks, in my experience!

Did you also know that iAlert you can be set to not only snap the picture of the chap stealing your macbook, but also email it to you the next time it goes on the internet?
Dear monoo,thank you, that WAS my experience.. it worked some time,but it kept failing at least once a month, though it looked good, it did not perform well.And I am winding up spending more on it than I spent on buying it

Dell service is supposed to be good.. my brother bought an Inspiron 1525 and is very happy with it, except for Vista, which he says is slow, inspite of the 3GB RAM the PC came with.. You buy a mac mainly for the OS, and it does make you view computers differently..
True.. my battery did die on me, but Apple replaced it free of charge in about a week.... Wonder what was wrong with the batteries.. otherwise my macbook is a joy to use, never crashes and has never slowed down, unlike the windows side of my mac..

Great review! I didn't really enjoy the movie all that much, it was too slapstick for my liking, but I guess you're right, if you go after a lobotomy, it might be a rollicking movie....I did like the return of Khiladi,, those were great moments!
gd forever: Actually the M1330 is quite close.. the apple OS is far superior, but is plagued by lack of similar software equivalents.. the hardware is much better than most PC, but Dell has come out with a winner here
Update: Sep 2007:Now 7 series Intel C2 D processors are available for Dell.. the M1330 is especially enticing. The 7200 has been discontinued and is replaced by the 7300 Santa Rosa C2 D that runs at 2.0 Ghz, but with 800 Mhz FSB, vs the 667 for the 7200, both have 4MB L2 cache, though, as the RAM is read more...
