The typical CPU implementation is very good. The Pentium 2 CPUs are Deschutes so they do not heat as much as typical desktop CPUs of the time. The active cooling is quite bat, overly noisy and ineffective, with a very tiny fan. The inclusion of an USB 1.0 port is a major feature. The keyboard is durable and with good tactile feedback. The trackpad is average in terms of response and sensibility, on par with Dell laptops but clearly less sensitive than Trackpoint equipped laptops. The palm rest is quite comfortable. | The typical CPU implementation is very good. The Pentium 2 CPUs are Deschutes so they do not heat as much as typical desktop CPUs of the time.

The removable drive tray is a nice feature, offering both CD-ROM and Floppy drive support. The rechargeable battery can be easily removed or replaced. The suspend battery is made out of a rechargeable NiMh battery that can degrade. BIOS and timekeeping battery is a standard CR2032 3V button cell. | The removable drive tray is a nice feature, offering both CD-ROM and Floppy drive support. The rechargeable battery can be easily removed or replaced, even replaced with the power supply, for a very compact desktop placement on 510 models. Unfortunately, the power supply has definitively poor build quality, trading durability for portability. The suspend battery is made out of a rechargeable NiMh battery that can degrade. BIOS and timekeeping battery is a standard CR2032 3V button cell. | ||
The chassis was standard, slightly heavier than other laptops, but, still, comfortable due to rounded corners. The laptop's case is not very durable as cracks are coomon. Combined with the lack of proper cooling, the design seems seriously flawed. The lid closing latch is well designed and durable. The display hinges are moderately ressistant although cracks near them are common. The integrated speakers are quite bad for a laptop due to their size and mounting. | The chassis was standard, slightly heavier than other laptops, but, still, comfortable due to rounded corners.
