I'm pretty sure that may be the best solution for you. I have one for my 9100 and I must say it's great. Nice sound and basic recording functionlity. All other PCMCIA sound cards I know of are geared more towards audio recording for...

Dell does underclock their video cards, but then again, so do most laptop vendors when compared to the desktop counterparts. I don't know if I'd call it a hardcore underclocking though. The tight enviroment of a laptop makes airflow...

Very nice indeed, although I wish they included a shot showing more of the front of the M1710.

I'd wait. You have a pretty killer system now, and I don't know that the real world increase in performance will really justify the $600 cost. Especially since Merom is right around the corner. If you really really want Core Duo wait a...
