Powermaster 3000 -- A fantastic power laptop  |
|
This is an awesome laptop and the ultimate in my opinion. With Its hot powerful ATI Radeon 9000 Mobility 64MB DDR graphics card - this laptop handles Unreal Tournament 2 with ease. Many so called top of the range well known branded PCs cannot compare to the Powermaster laptop!! The super sharp 15.1" SXGA screen goes to a maximum resolution of 1400x1050!! For a laptop to do this - under £1300 is a spectacular. With its Pentium 4 2.8GHz super powerful CPU and 512MB DDR memory I found this laptop to fly through anything i threw at it - even 3D Studio MAX! . Its black and silver finish got all my friends talking. I can even play CDs without the laptop being on, how cool is that. In my opinion this laptop is ideal for all games fanatics who want a super mobile laptop. It will also suit, CADCAM and people who want alot of power on tap. Its the ultimate complete desktop replacement with 4, yes 4 USB 2.0 ports as well as Firewire and Infrared for mobile internet access. The delivery on the laptop was done within 2 days as promised! - so thanks for that. Its a super beast of a machine being less that 1" thick..and super slim..I am really happy with it, and for the price i payed i cannot believe what i got. Another well known branded manufacturer wanted nearly £2000 for exact same spec.. but their laptop was alot more inferior in my opinion and did not certainly look as good.! So I chose the Powermaster 3000 Pentium 4 2.8GHz - Its fantastic, full marks to the seller Premiergent - its definately a Powermaster! as the name suggests. Theres even a Pentium 4 2.4GHz version for around £100 less - so its will suit most budgets. Windows XP Home completes the package - and you even get all the original recovery CDs!! Just a little point to add, the Powermaster comes with one single 512MB memory module, (i have seen many manufacturers - who put 2 x 256MB to memory in to make 512MB - filling the available 2 memory slots). The Powermaster 3000s unique memory configuration means theres room for another 512MB - making 1GB DDR memory if you want it in the future. A superb laptop from a superb manufacturer at the right price.

Simplicity itself  |
|
I fitted this to my laptop and the associated router to my new NTL broadband modem when my broadband was installed on Saturday. It took all of 5 minutes and I now have wireless broadband which is simply brilliant. The set up of the laptop card was simplicity itself - just plug it in and away you go. You need to connect up the router (I used the Linksys Wireless-G Router - also from Amazon) to the modem first. The longest part of the exercise was reinstalling Norton Internet Security (which you should uninstall before any broadband installations) - but within 5 mins of reinstalling it, it prevented some hacker from Berlin (Norton can tell you where the attack is from) hacking my new system. I am not a techy, just an average user, but this product is brilliant and simplicity itself. Very strongly recommended: 5-star.

Seamless & powerful integration with WinXP  |
There is really little to say about this little card other than it has workhorse performance and is really easy to set up. I can happily report Ive encountered no such problems with the Linksys kit - it just works superbly. Ok, they are not the cheapest but they are the biggest and best by a country mile. The few quid extra is worth it. Linksys are a division of Cisco - says it all really. My relatively simple setup is a hardwired broadband desktop into which I put the Linksys 54G PCI card. I then placed the PCMCIA 54G cards into two laptops. Less than a dozen mouse-clicks later I had a fully WEP enabled wireless home network; sharing broadband internet, folders and a printer. Scary or what! Total setup time (including fitting the PCI card): 1 hour. Linksys also have a superb website and support infrastructure. I really knew very little about networking when I bought these items (actually I still dont) but thankfully they are painless to implement and do the job well.
