Emachines Introduces Athlon 64 Laptop
Drool... I've been using my Emachines M5310 laptop since I bought it in august 2003 and it's been fantastic for the money. Now emachines turns around and introduces an M6805 AMD Athlon 64 laptop based on the same basic formula: 15.4 1280x800 widescreen, 60 GB drive and ATI Radeon 9600 64 MB Video. It's retailing for $1549 right now at best buy. There's also an M6807 model that includes a DVD writer combo drive for $100 more. If these new machines run linux as well as the M5310, they'll be hard to beat for cheap, fast, portable linux boxen.
