2048 x 1546 res on the eMachines uses virtual desktop, and it not the native res. Notebook screens are not like CRTs so when changing the res fron the native the screen interpolates thus causing some blur. That said, I am seriously considering the eMachines. They seem to be sold out at all...

I looked at it Voodoo M:855 and it is a sexy beast but costs tooo much. So i am considering the CyberPower http://www.cyberpowersystem.com/highendsystem/ntbkx648000.asp or waiting for this http://www.eurocom.ca/products/future/specselectfuture.cfm?model_id=126 But maybe I can't...

I want to buy an AMD Athalon 64 based notebook. I have considered eMachines m6807 - good bang for the $ . I have tried it out at CC/BB it is quick but i need a higher resolution screen. While the build quality is not bad (no worse than a Dell!) the back of the screen case was a bit flimsy...

Which has the better screen? I need a notebook for a lot of image editing on large files in Photoshop. The 8600 screens (SXGA+, UXGA) seem attractive rather than more power What is the screen like on the eMachines?

cyberpower have a AMD Athalon 64 notebook based on the Mitac. Compared to the emachines it has 128Mb VRAM, a higher res screen SXGA+ 15", faster hard dive etc but it costs 2K ! That makes the eMachines seem like a good deal. Now compare your spec to the eMachines....I would go with the m6805...

Thanks folks....RE: "As far as the screen goes, it's great, but if I were doing photoshop, I'd want something larger than 1280x800..." The problem is finding a notebook with a larger/better screen for photoshop on an AMD64 based machine. There are some that support SXGA+ (like the Voodoo...

What is the screen like on the eMachines m6807 like in terms of sharpness, brightness, contrast and color? I would use this notebook for a lot of photoshop work on large files. Also i have heard that some folks are getting the notebook supplied with a 5400 rpm hard drive instead of the 4200...

I will be using it for extensive Photoshop editing on large files (ranging from 4Mb to 400Mb!) Hi res photos captured from a dig camera back. The notebook will be connected to a 22" Lacie monoitor but on location I will need to preview, view and edit on the notebook screen. It looks like i...

Thanks Eric1285: Shame about the screen then. I wish there was a good affordable AMD64 based notebook with an SXGA/UXGA. I am looking at the Hypersonic Aviator AX6 but it costs more. It has a 15.1" SXGA+ High Contrast Display. I have had a Dell for the last 3 years and dont like it!!

Anyone heard anything more re the Best Buy rumor of a 17" plus rad 9600 pro 128Vram eMachines notebook?

What is the screen like? Sharp, bright, contrast??? Would it be good enough for lots of photoshop editing on high res files?

Call a laptop a Gaming PC = jack up the price I know i will get a lot of flak for this but cant some gamers get some acne cream and get a social life? The rest of us would like a performance notebook for WORK (and some games!!) Yep, Dell XPS not worth it IMO

I hope they bring something out soon! I have been considering the 6807 but the screen seems a bit under par for me. The build quality is not that great but their prices are!! I want an AMD 64 based machine with a great screen (for extensive photo/video editing) I have been looking at the...

"everything is rebanged is some way or another. and to be looks do count LOL. but I will look at that voodoo tho." Yep, it seems so. Seems to me that there are some expensive paint jobs out there! I am looking for a notebook for my work (photo/video) and am looking at a machine with good...

Thanks for the reply. I considered a desktop but I realy need a notebook as I will be working in two different locations (here in the US and the UK!) I thought about moving to Mac but the cost will be too high to port all my apps also some dont run on Mac. Here in the US when i am at the...

I am looking into notebooks with a Mobile AMD Athlon 64 processor. The eMacnines M6807 seems to be a very good buy at the moment for the money. Can it support 2Gb of RAM? Is the screen good for serious image editing in Photoshop etc? Also looking at other Athalon based systems like the...

Hi all, I am looking to get a laptop to replace my desktop. My main use will be photographic editing (Photoshop), Image storage and catalog, RAW file batch conversions etc Yep, you've guessed it, I am a photographer. So, for me screen is very important for good color reproduction and...
