Re: my new tuning laptop
Yeah they are having some decent sales since they are closing down. I went there on sunday but everything was still pretty much retail price people just thought they were getting a "great deal" The place was packed.
I got a new laptop that I am really hoping is going to work good for datamaster

Defiantly not the cheapest but since I use it for work it will just be icing on the cake if it works with datamaster

Re: my new tuning laptop
For those looking for secondhand laptops that'll be good for tuning, don't ignore the HP NC-Series (NC4000, NC6000, etc...). They come in Pentium M 1.4-1.6 GHz flavors, 12"-14" screens, plenty of RAM, decent sized HDDs, and only weigh a little over 3 lbs. No DB9 port, but you can USB adapt if need be.
Several on eBay around the $100-150 mark.
This one is obviously way above the price mark, but his ad has good pics - link

Re: my new tuning laptop
No DB9 serial port....though you can use a USB/DB9 adapter.
Here's a review of the S10 - http://blog.laptopmag.com/up-close-with-lenovos-ideapad-s10-one-sweet-10-incher
Current retail price for the Lenovo S10 Ideapad is around $350, but I've seen some sales where they're marked down to $250-275. Not sure what Daron paid though.
