I purchased a new laptop. I wanted something very light and high-performing one, which means I have few candidates. The candidates were Lenovo ThinkPad X61(s), Toshiba Portage R500 and Fujitsu S6510. Toshiba was excluded because of its infamous customer support in Korea. I almost chose X61, but I leaned toward S6510 finally because it has wider screen and is based on the Penryn processor which has 6MB L2 cache. One issue is that I can’t use the ‘red bean’ (i.e. TrackPoint) anymore, but I can live with that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another cool gear that filled my need was MTRON 30GB SSD. 30GB is very enough for Linux laptop users because installing most packages just takes several gigabytes. I still have plenty of free space for me as a developer. If I were going to install Windows Vista, I couldn’t make it. The performance of the SSD is pretty cool, especially when it comes down to random access due to its 0.1ms access time. Moreover, it is very shock-resistant, silent and durable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In overall, I am really satisfied with my purchase both in terms of performance and silence. I’d recommend this setting to every developer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
