| reply to howie Here's my laptop. It's a Lenovo with a dual Intel/ATI chipset, but I've got it set to Intel because (a) I'm also running Linux and it gets confused if both chipsets are enabled and (b) I'm not doing gaming on it so I don't really need high-performance graphics, and (c) the Intel chipset uses less power.
From Googling around, it appears that 5.9 is about the limit for a physical hard drive. For higher than that you need to go to an SSD.
Note that you can use the Snipping tool to do the screen captures. It's in the Accessories folder, or you can search for "snip". |

| reply to howie Now I have a question which has bothered me for a long time, but why aren't these scores listed on manufacturer sites, ie if I'm looking at buying system X from a vendor, I should be able to check the given WEI score for the system before I buy it. Can you do this now, and if not, why not? If you can, which vendors?

| reply to CompUser said by CompUser :Win7 on my netbook. It runs better than you would expect. I agree I got a 2.0 when I was running the beta, now I wouldn't conquer the world with it, but it did boot and surf rather well for a beta anyway. -- If you have a topic in the direct forum please reply to it or a post of mine, I get a notification when you do this.

| LOL. Check this out (banking pc):

Apparantly Windows 7 can't figure out if you have an ati 3600 series (graphics section at bottom) or a 2600xt (on the graphics section at top) if you have to use hacked vista drivers since ATI can't bother to make good agp drivers for 7... |
