Psion 5MX
Many computer enthusiasts have, for a long time, had the dream of keeping desktop-class performance close at hand, wherever they are, whenever they need or want it. That dream began to take shape over the years in the form of small computers that could at least handle most office functions. Meanwhile, we all waited for the day when more would be possible...
The first attempts, limited by the technology available at the time, are best represented by a device like the Psion 5MX.

OMG - what a shock
Leaving sarcasm aside, this is a tremendous achievement. Hats off dear Sirs. I always knew that the mainstream manufacturers have gotten complacent...
Just one small question: what's the battery life?

BTW....Is it 4 sale?
I think they should get gold badges in the homebuilt forum section. Any chance of raffling this off like the SBM rigs?
Excellent read, and what an impressive feat.
(You guys might want to proof read it again, though
I have the VGN-UX390N also. It came with Vista, and the speed was similar to a 1.60 Atom. After installing Windows 7, it runs fast...really really fast. I was actually surprised to see the performance jump that I got.
Those are some scary mods to make though. I would never risk harm to my little Sony friend. Impressive nonetheless
GPU= GMA950@400mhz (200mhz in standard UX)
CPU= U7700@1438mhz (instead of 1.33ghz for a U7700, and 1.2ghz for U2200)
Battery life= same as a standard UX (for the same tasks done/ 2,5h standard battery/ 4-5h extended (If you use all the features in the same time (watching streamed HD1080P through 3.5g...)... well divide by 3...))
The core2duo is the most efficient cpu in terms of computing power/watt...
Yes, i'm sure that's exactly what it means, I can just imagine a group of standards and regulations assessors sat round a table with item 1 on the agenda being, "let's deliberately make something crap"
idiot...
