I was looking for a new laptop and after a little research descided on the MSI CX700. It speced out well for the money with a newer 2 Gig dual-core proc, dedicated mem ATI chip, etc. I ordered it and received the MSI CR700, very similar but with a Nvidia chip and shared mem. I contacted Amazon and they were great and let me hold on to the CR700 while they shipped me a new CX700. I waited a little while and when I received the replacement I found it to be another CR700! I contacted Amazon again and long story short they finally got me a CX700. I had them both over the weekend so I desided to do a little compairing of the two. Well I was surprised to see the CR700 boot faster and shut down faster, I benchmarked them and the CR700 beat out the CX700 in every benchmark accept 3D graphics. Since I’m not really into gaming on a laptop I desided to keep the CR700. It beat out the CX700 in CPU tests, memory, 2D, HD tests I was really surprised and it booted up about 10 seconds faster. They are close but there is a difference. I also like the all dark look of the CR700. They do have different MB’s and chipsets so maybe that is the reason the CR700 beat it out. The CR700 uses a Nvidia chipset on the MB while the CX uses a SIS. Hope that helps you deside which one to get, also the CR is cheaper. I gave the CX 3 stars but would give the CR 4 stars. If you are going to game on a laptop you have a slightly better chance on the CX for everything else I see the CR as the winner. Amazon was also great, they screwed up but gave great customer service through it all. I buy alot of stuff on Amazon and will continue too in the future.
***UPDATE***
System works fantastic with Windows 7, faster and better I never realized how slow Vista was.
