The 1500T is a solid machine but there's still a lot of bugs need to be work out. The 900Z is so new that we haven't even found all the bugs in it yet. Wait a few months if u can until all the new model bugs are worked out. Trust me on this because I work with these everyday. I can tell you how I know but I'll have to kill you afterward.
Hi dentrapment,
Welcome to Anandtech, that would be your first post with your current account I supposed. Anyway, if you would care to elaborate on what particular problems the 700 series AMD cpu notebook have for consumers when it first came out, I am sure alot of use would be more advised. I am sure that if you could somehow link us to some of the sources of problems on the internet forums or compaq's tech support that discusses about all those problem we would also appreciate it too. And as far as those bugs that you mentioned for the 700Z, did compaq provide a sufficient patch for them or just decide to tell the owners of those notebook to go around the problem.
As far as your comment on, having to kill Bfavre444(figuratively I hope) if you tell him how you know about those bugs, why not just tell us what specific bugs are those notebooks currently being plagued with.
If you are a compaq engineer, who cant leak out any secrets regarding compaq's top secret bug solving team for notebooks, its amazing that you took the risk to warn us about buying these notebooks. We appreciate it.
Btw: could you pass the message to compaq CEO Fiona, that if she ever release a notebook that is half developed full of bugs and expects the consumers to be guinea pigs for them, she is then as bad as those coorporate rascal.
Peace out
Once again Rossman beats me to it. Argghhhh.
