Hi, Thought i'd say hello.. First time user on here.. Mainly come to these here after reading the evesham laptop review, very good review and laptop but decided to go for a zd8000 series HP. Lesser graphics but gives me a spare 500 to spend on a desktop within the next 6 months. Lovely laptop none the less and gets a respectable 2100 in 3mark and runs Far Cry at 60-70fps on medium settings, so i'm a happy chappy . So i figure just start this thread as a "Get to know you" one, presume there is a majority of people on here that don't exactly know eachother. So...
