That’s a hell of a lot of notebook for your money, especially when you consider that it will be based on the Santa Rosa platform. Even with the missing Turbo Memory and draft-n Wi-Fi the R70 looks like an absolute bargain, especially if you want a Media Center notebook that can easily hook up to your high definition TV."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/cgg-samr70-051507.jpg" /><br /><br />Interesting look at a pre-production unit based on the new Santa Rosa platform. Considering that this model does not even implement some of the more cutting edge features of Santa Rosa, I expect that the notebook market will seem some interesting machines in the coming months.
