It came with Vista but I formatted it after 2 weeks of frustration and not being able to run certain apps even in compatability mode. It's pretty lightweight and I get decent battery life (about 3 hrs with standard battery). 2) Gateway extended 12-cell li-ion battery. Goes for about 4:45 to 5:00 hours. 3) Gateway power adapter 4) APC external 80WHR li-poly battery. I plug my AC adapter into this and plug my laptop into the battery. The battery will give me a little extra boost (can charge back up my primary battery from 5% back up to about 65% in a decently short time). I also plug my usb powered accessories (bluetooth headphones, smartphones, etc) into its USB charging port for a boost. 5) Timbuk2 laptop sleeve 6) off-brand laptop foam sleeve that goes inside the timbuk2, from the japanese dollar-store Ichiban Khan. I would have gotten their A4 sized hard case for that but my laptop is about 1" too big :( 7) Treo 700WX EVDO smartphone 8) Treo charger, and Seidio external treo battery charger for USB2, and USB charge-cable for Treo. 9) MonsterPower 4-outlet travel surge protector. Great for when all the outlets at Starbucks are taken. 10) DC to AC power inverter for car. 11) 1 to 2 DC power outlet splitter. 12) Sennheiser headphones 13) Phillips noise cancelling over-ear headphones (gifted by BFF Chrissy for...i think it was chinese new year?) 14) 2.5mm to 3.5mm headphone adapter so i can listen to tunes from my Treo on those oversized headphones 15) Clif bars 16) Water bottle 17) 1gb flash drive on keychain 18) ZipCar zipcard 19) Motorola HT820 stereo bluetooth headphones/ headset. Listen to music and also talk with the same device on smartphone. The hacked stereo A2dp bluetooth on Windows Mobile sucks however. I hope eventually to find a device that has A2dp and Exchange activesync in the future...but without Windows Mobile. If only they made the Nokia E61 for CDMA networks. Or also considering the Helio Ocean. Yeah, i just started a Sprint contract but.....i digress. 20) Scala 500 windproof mono bluetooth headset. Thing runs all day without charging :) 21) Sprint Novatel U720 USB Rev-A wireless broadband card. I get 1400 kbps down and 700kbps up with 100ms latency on this bad boy. 1) gateway dual core 1.6 intel 1gb 100gb hdd laptop running XP SP2.

Last weekend I was at Costco and found an HP (yep, I have moved on from my Dell) that is totally awesome. And it even goes on sale for $899 2/20/07 (I paid $999 cause I have no patience). The model is dv6253c, AMD Turion 64x2 dual-core, 2GB Ram, 120 GB HD, DVD+RW, built in Web Cam (cool!) and Windows Vista Home Premium. It is so great. Thanks for the tips on WSUS (that is how I found you) - not having fun with this stupid server - though. I look forward to checking out the rest of your archives.
