200XL or 450XL?

Going to order one or the other. Any info that could help my decision on
which one would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Bob

Have the 450. Less than a year old and already had to replace the
CDRW/DVD combo drive three (3) times. The first replacement for the
original drive because the computer delivered with a DOA combo drive
even though it had a QA Passed sticker on it???? The Hard Drive
replaced two (2) times. The lid switch to put the system into standby
when closing the lid broke the first week.

The system is a good performer when it isn't down for repair. We got
it to do presentations while on the road but don't trust it any more
for that and use an older IBM ThinkPad that has never had a problem
since day one instead. We now use the 450 in the office for duties
not important enough to care about if the system fails.

Not a good track record for an $1800 custom configured unit less than
a year old.

Regards,
Thomas

How much do you want to spend? What are going to use it for? What features
are must haves? Without proper information from you, meaningful advice is
impossible.

Amount is secondary. Wireless connectivity a must. Reliability very
important.Use is primarily pleasure with a major bit of accounting for a
