If you want a really sleek looking install, again you can do it with a laptop as well. All it takes is time and imagination.
I was at a decision point on whether to upgrade my Stylistic 1200 to the 2300...or jump up to something more powerful.
Here were the advantages. Power problem was solved. In fact, uses very little power (i.e. more efficient). Even has backup battery power. Already a compact size.
Disadvantage was the ability to upgrade...and sometimes driver issues, depending on the OS and age of the machine.
I used my 120mhz machine for 5 years.
