My brand new laptop

Got my new Compaq N610c today.


  • Mobile Intel Pentium 2.2 Ghz
  • 30 GB Hard disk, 256MB Ram
  • ATI Radeon 7500 with 32MB memory
  • 15″ LCD Screen
  • DVD+CD drive,external floppy
  • Touch screen + track point ( my fav )
  • Best of all : 4 hour battery life

So far the only issue I’ve come across is it gets a bit over heated (Hot enough to burn my balls)

    Stop lapping it when naked. I believe installing Squid and visiting this site would be a good first step… 😉

    Cool.

    15″ LCD Screen

    U sure about that? 🙂 coz none of these configs say that it has a 15″ or do you have a N620?

    BTW, how much did it cost?

    Sorry I forgot to mention. I did not buy it.. its from the company itself. And since I dont plan to move out anywhere soon, I guess this is mine till it dies 🙂

    Warning: Prolonged exposure of scrotum(and testicles) to high temperature can lead to sterility and impotence. Thats the reason they hang out – to keep cool

    I thought they need to be at a higher temperature than the ambient temperature and thats why they “hang out”!

    Why? How much can yours do? :p

    I was initially given an N610c which could only do 1024×768, cause that is what they sell in india. I had it exchanged for an N800c, which can do 1400×1050.

    does ur company have a job for me!!??? 🙂

  23. admin · September 2, 2003 Reply

    yep. looks like 1024×768 is max. How much is n800c diff form 610c ? We might be getting few of these machine in 2 months.. but it would mean I will have to wait till then for them

  24. sidcarter · September 3, 2003 Reply

    cost wise ? dunno dude….Otherwise, it’s got a DVD/CD-RW Combo, 64 MB VRAM and 60 GB HDD.

    Does it have wifi ?

  26. rpratap · September 3, 2003 Reply

    Dude, you need more RAM! I feel stifled with anything less than 512M 🙂

    Skimping on the RAM?

    What good is a 2.2GHz CPU if there’s only 256MB of RAM? That’s crazy. I wouldn’t get anything less than 1GB nowadays.
