I got this one: http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/p...s=19&c=us&l=en The LowePro Tropolis 1250. The laptop fits very nice, well protected, very well made, etc. The only thing is there isn't a whole lot of room left for...
Here's a screen shot of my ATI Catalyst control panel: If that doesn't work, it's on my blog here. As you can see it clearly says X1300 at the top, and then lists 256 Megs of Hypermemory down below.
I ran 3DMark05 last night, just the freebie version and it came back with 1259 for a score. But my RAM is a bit screwed up at this point, I'm waiting for my second 1 Gig dimm to come from newegg.com, so I'm not running dual channel...
It's amazing how some people are insecure about their purchases they feel the need to try to proclaim superiority over all others. You see the same thing in the Bimmer forums. People who purchased 330i's will claim the guys with...
But with the $1200 you save by not buying a MacBook, doesn't that leave you with several options. Say buying a desktop at home to play games on, or hiring someone to carry your notebook around for you?
Interesting. I just bought a E1505 for half the price of the equivalent MacBook Pro. And my battery lasts twice as long. Have fun with your Apple, I guess. I'm going to use the $1200 I saved to do something useful besides lining...
The people giving him advice to buy an M170 or whatever... you obviously missed the point. The reason his system was so expensive is he added in Dell premium upgrades like the 100 Gig 7200 rpm drive, 2 gigs RAM, 4 year warranty with...
I'll try to post a screenshot from Catalyst later, but it is definately saying I have an X1300 chipset and 256 Megs of video ram. I thought the memory reading was odd too, and don't really have an explanation. I'm just happy it's not...
I just got my E1505 the other day with 2.0Ghz Core Duo, and the ATI X1300 video card. I mainly just wanted the dedicated card cause I don't trust the integrated. We've got Latitude D610 notebooks at work, and it's just horrible. I...
Followup on the Gigaram. Tried to install them, and one of the dimms was causing the machine to lockup. So I have to submit a RMA to newegg. Oh, and in the meantime they've dropped in price to $86.
