Samsung X50 (Pentium M Processor 740 1.73GHz, 512MB RAM)

This is a followup to my previous post. After a few days I ended up taking the X50 back and swapping it for the Acer Ferrari 4005. I'm certainly glad I did. The Ferrari is a much nicer notebook. The keyboard on the X50 has a more solid feel, but other than that the Ferrari is better in all areas. The Ferrari runs a lot cooler than the X50, the touchpad is vastly superior, the high-res screen is great. It did come with one dead pixel, but Acer has agreed to replace the screen. Technically they didn't have to. The slot-loading dvd drive is great. All notebooks should use them. Overall a very well-made and stylish notebook. If you are thinking of buying the X50, do yourself a favor and take a look at the Ferrari first.
