My new 1.6 Mini-12 w/ WinXP battles to win big points when compared side-by-side with any of my several X300's, all still running exquisitely after all these many many years. My old X300s have lasted and lasted and lasted. 1.4CPU, 40-60gig HD, 12" screen, 640 to 1gig RAM, and all but two with original batteries and none weighing more than 2.9 lbs -- well, with prices in the $300-$450 range on Ebay, these old X300 workhorses continue even now to give my sleek Mini-12 a run for the money. Yup, even after 8 years! ~Charles Hedbring, SegPT.com Oh how soon we forget: Remember the good old Dell Latitude X300?

(It can't because the GPU isn't compatible), as far as I know. This laptop looks incredible, now if it only had the ability to run OS X!
