Andreas, looking forward to the review. Please pass on to your bosses that they really should be benchmarking laptops. Sysmark 2000 is less display intensive than ZD's stuff though.

Even before Palomino comes out, I'd like to know things like:
Is a GHz P3 notebook any faster than an 850 MHz?
How much does the notebook slow down due to "throttling" when running benchmarks on the beach in 35 degC temps?
Battery life when playing DVD's is a key benchmark for me and many people. But I'd also like to see battery life when playing with huge spreadsheets.

Petz
