I need a laptop so the Shuttle must be sold
. The funny thing is, my SN45G runs much faster and more stable than many newer computers. Benchmarks aside, my system loads faster and is has faster user response than all my friends newer computers (even with playing the game FEAR on higher detail settings). I do audio Recording Studio sessions and the SN45G works great since I can playback the dithered down tracks through the Nforce 2 dedicated hardware audio as a reference. Bottom Line, my customized Shuttle SN45G (v 1.0) has and still fits my performance needs. But how much $ do you all think it is worth?
