My office has a laptop "pool" from which the less-than-port-
replicated may sign out a laptop. A 2 year old Toshiba Portege
either drives users nuts with its subsized keyboard and screen or
"its terrifically compact and light". Its logged the most miles,
guestimate ~100,000, and it still computes like mile 1.
Personally I hate it, but its all in the mind of the beholder. My
immediate VP won't carry a laptop heavier than 5 pounds! No 760's or
even 365's in her world no matter what the reviews.
