I just got my new 8600 and I'm loving its versatility. However, I keep reading about people having to replace stuff for it. Is the extended warranty worth it? I take really good care of my stuff but this 8600 will get extended...
The extra 200 mhz makes really no difference at all for what you intend to use the computer for. The only things that are really processor intensive are games and some high-end business applications. Get the 1.6 ghz and get 1 gig of...
Mine is as hot as ATL says. I have the 65w one. Whats the difference between the 2 kinds?
I just accidentally brushed against this thing and it is intensely hot. That can't be good at all. Any of you guys have this problem? I thought Dell had replaced the power adapters with better ones
The 700m is nice but you really need to get the 8 cell battery with it since the normal battery only lasts 2 hours. Yes, 2 hours. 2.5 if you make everything as slow as possible. And the keyboard is 90% the size of a normal one. Its...

Got mine right after my last midterm yesterday. I'm afraid I'd missed it because of the test. Arrived just in time :P
In transit at the moment. (YES!!!) It takes a week anyways to build so the difference between overnight and ground is 7 days v 9 or so. Not that big a difference. I'm in the bay area, which is of course, the biggest port on the...
Be sure to get the extended battery or else it'll only last about 2.5 hours on the road. The screen is very bright. Its mainly a love it or hate it kind of thing. In addition the keyboard is a 90% one so you'll take a while to get...
