I am getting mine just after the first of the year and configured it with only 512mb. I’ll just stay “down on the farm” and ignore Vista until it becomes economical to run it. (At least on this PC…)

Similar to the LS800.
Do you feel that this is the situation? Thanks

I believe that the memory is proprietary and has to come from Fujitsu, but verify that before taking my word for it.

Thanks

I have used ritePen for a long time however, and have reveiwed it here:

I have been reading the Fujitsu web site and am a little confused about the software bundle. Was ritePen 2.5 bundled with your 1610? If it was, how do you like it? I have never been a fan of TabletPC’s TIP concept and ritePen looks like a better system to me.

Thanks

That’s so interesting…I’ve been using Mac OSX for over a year and Vista since RC2. At first, Vista seemed like a total copy of OSX. Now that I’m using Vista more (and still using OSX), I can safely say that Vista IS a MSFT product and is NOTHING like OSX.

Anyone who says OSX and Vista are the same either (a) haven’t used OSX for a long time, (b) haven’t used Vista for a long time (c) looked at screenshots/videos of Vista/OSX and made their conclusions.
