(USA) SOLD: Toughbook CF-Y7
Posted: Mon Aug 04, 2014 2:37 pm
Toughbook CF-Y7 with Japanese/English keyboard (listed 2014-07-13, ended up selling locally)
Specifications are pretty much same as when I bought it. However, it is more scratched now, and internal speakers stopped working (I do not know why. Headphones jack does work.).
To buy only CF-Y7 laptop, I ask for $50, shipped.
My brief impression and opinion: it does not run 'cool' enough for my liking. For a PC of this thickness, I honestly expected it to have a lower temperature. Y7 cooling system annoys me: its fan is very noticeable. (My opinion: a fan might be fast and loud to keep cool, or it might be quiet and hot, but this much noise and heat is too-much uncomfortable.) Its CardBus system under-delivers, which I by now am convinced is typical of laptops in general, unfortunately.
