We should note that this is the first notebook we have tested using a single channel memory implementation (DDR) of a 915XX mobile chipset. This cuts down on memory costs MB per dollar, but the side effect is that performance will be undercut in memory bandwidth limited situations. The scores from Business Winstone 2k4 show just how this effects raw numbers.
