Patrick,

Is your 2530p have the same configuration as Chris's "L9600  @
2.13GHz, 160G disk, 4G memory"?

When I went looking at these I did not find any with this fast a
processor. The slower processor's are also cheaper. There was one
L9300 at 1.8GHz, 160 G disk, 2G memory for $1000 including tax and
shipping from a 4.5 (out of 5) star rated vendor.
I'm confused. How much slower would this be in the real world? Noticeable?
