I'd like one but........ #

By Anonymous Coward Posted Monday 18th February 2008 16:26 GMT

I'm just about to buy a budget laptop and this model seemed to tick all the boxes until I checked the spec pages on the linked Samsung page and the referral links to the 2 sellers and I found that:

Processor is the T2130 1.46GHz Dual Core

There's only 1Gb of RAM with both slots filled.

The HD is 80Gb not 250Gb

Still not a bad laptop for the price but not the stellar bargain a 1.6GHz C2D, 2Gb, 250Gb Lappy would be.

If the specs are correct when will it be available to the cash wielding public?

shame on unwired #

Are you guys members of the NUJ? unlikely because it seems you're misleading excited punters!

The spec you're looking at costs around TWICE the price that is shown above - http://www.google.co.uk/products?q=samsung+r60plus&hl=en&scoring=pd will show you a froogle search. the spec for the price is a paltry 80GB, 1 GB RAM and maybe even a cut down chip - not a Core2Duo.

Frustrating when good sites like this republish poorly researched reviews!
