More Space & Performance!2008-08-24
My IBM-Lenovo ThinkPad T61 came with 160 GB 5400 hard drive it was noisy and slow, so I decided to buy the 7K200 more space + increase in performance is exactly what I was looking for so I purchased it and after installation I immediately noticed that my notebook became at least 15% faster, the palmrest felt cooler and no more clicking sound and I haven't noticed any increase in power consumption I highly recommend this product.
Wait for the 7K320!!2008-07-04
Hitachi Travelstars are fantastic performers and highly reliable. But don't spend your money on this soon to be obsolete model. On May , 200, Hitachi announced the 7K320 - an updated version with a huge, 320GB capacity, that is not only larger and faster than its predecessor, but also consumes less power. Clearly retailers like Amazon are trying to clear out their old inventory before revealing the new model. Don't be a fool - wait for the new one.

Backup drive for Thinkpad2008-06-20
Get this fast serial ata drive, an IBM Serial ATA drive caddy, and Acronis True Image. Then you can clone your hard drive to your backup drive in a snap. Works great. Nice and fast drive. I wish is was BIGGER.

As simple as they are to use, choosing the right digital camera involves a number of decisions. Key issues are computing platform, image quality, onboard image capacity, exposure versatility, feature set, and included software. In this article, we'll lead you step-by-step through some of the issues to consider in making a purchase decision, and at the same time, suggest some things to look for in the test images we've collected on our website. We're interested in your feedback and experience! We invite you to elaborate on this article by leaving comments via the database link at the bottom of the page.

Driving with a cell phone is a lot less dangerous than driving on prescription drugs
There's a lot of debate today about the safety of using cell phones while driving. Statistics show that those who use cell phones while driving cause a much greater percentage of accidents than those who avoid using their cell phones. And the studies have shown that it's not just the physical coordination required to punch numbers into the cell phone while you're trying to work the vehicle that causes accidents; it's actually the lack of attention resulting from driving and talking on the cell phone at the same time. It seems that when you're distracted, you're more likely to cause accidents. In terms of public safety, it's probably correct to say that banning cell phones would reduce the number of traffic accidents. But I think, more accurately, it depends on the person. Some people are operating on, shall we say, lower power CPUs in their heads to begin with. They might be zoned out on prescription drugs, and when you add a cell phone to the equation, they do become a danger to the ...
