Advantages: modularity

Disadvantages: .

Given its pack-leading 600MHz Pentium III processor, it's no surprise that the Armada turned in above-average benchmark scores, but it was a little slower in the comprehensive Business Winstone 99 test. While it may have the fastest processor, it's not necessarily the fastest performer.

The Armada's modularity, however, is truly remarkable. Its tube-shaped external battery, for instance, hooks easily onto the rear of the unit and can pivot 90 degrees to become a stand (and to expose the rear expansion ports) when you're working at a desk. Alternately, you can drop the Armada onto its optional underbelly docking station, which duplicates the expansion ports, adds line-in and line-out audio jacks, and supplies two drive bays. The latter can accommodate a secondary battery and a variety of drives, including floppy, CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, SuperDisk LS-120, and hard drives. The docking station is available with either a CD-ROM drive or with a DVD-ROM.
