The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

I just bought the 6809, although I didn't receive it in the mail yet. I have heard that it will work with two gigs, is it worth it to get that much? And will it accept anything faster than 3200? Thanks...later

Just got into the laptop game with a 6809...

btw, has anyone here made heatsinks here before? It looks like there is more room in there for something better, but I have never made anything that small. This is going to be a fun little challenge for sure. I bet I could fit a water block in there, but then it woulden't be so portable now would it? I'll have to give this some more thought...later

2 Gigs? Are you going to be running a database server on that thing? if not, I think 1GB is plenty enough and you'll see diminishing returns after adding much more than that.
