There not THAT bad, but it does matter what U want to use it for.... I use my 280c as a sorta "mobile harddrive" for my personal stuff and files (I am a sports agent). Basicly I have a Mac network at home and at work, each w/ a Duo Dock in them. The desktops have all of the apps on them (WP, MSWord, AOL, Westlaw, etc.) and I store the files on my duo. And because I travel alot, my "mobile hardrive" can also be used to work on the files, do e-mails and SOME browsing... which makes it better than having all of my info on a ZIP drive or something... ...so for me the Duo 280c is great.
