A friend was after a Lappy to sit on her lappy so she could browse the net...chasing up her home town [Amsterdam], etc ...so I went off with her to the local 'Laptop Zone'.
Found a second hand one that looked too good to pass up....
....and there were two of them, so what-the-heck I got one too.
Acer Travelmate 6592 ....cost $295 AUD with a bag thrown in.
They're identical ....though now mine's had the XP Pro replaced with a quick trip to Technet and a Win7 64 Ultimate.
So I went hunting on the net to see a little more of what it was/is/does .... and found that the RRP in 2007 was $3199 in oz.
Kinda cheap at half the price...as they say...

I think that 'TravelMate' is apt...only if you're Arnie....cos it's not all that light.
Fun to play with, though...
Geez you can get some cheap stuff sometimes...
