UPDATE (3/31/2002):

I upgraded the system with a K6-III+ 450 MHz (overclocked to 500 MHz with the Central Tweaking unit), for a 185 % speed increase!!! Anything to breathe new life into this system and to avoid the $2000 for a new one!

i'v ehad the laptop for about 12 months and I've been throughly satisfied with it. The only upgrade I mad was withe the hard drive. The multiple applications ran ok. This syatem handled, Quake 2 and C&C Red Alert-Yuri's Revenge really well.
I was able to run both Quake 3 and C&C Renegade, but video was poor and was reeeealllllllyyyyyy sllloooowwwwwwww. DVD playback was kind of slugish, but I fixed that when I added a USB 2.0 card and a external DVD-RW drive. The 380 Mhz processor if fine but i reccomend upgrading to atleast 450 Mhz. The speaker's were by far the best laptop speakers I've heard besides me Toshiba Sattelite 2455's Harmon-Kardons
