I was going to review my lappy but thought their were to many already. I decided just to do my personalization shield for review. Well these have been around for a while but they fit perfectly on our current systems so why not say something about it. I remember having an M170 and it was prone to scratches even being well taken care of, so I did not risk the chance against this one. All I can say is this thing is very sturdy and protects the cover of the M1710 very well. You will see in the pictures that this will cover all the red of my red edition M1710. I pressed against the shield with it diss-attached and I was very impressed on how firm it kept. Its made with harden plastic...

The M1710 is a high performance laptop with the latest in high end components under it's hood.. Since there have not been any reviews of the M1710 since last year I decided to provide an updated review based on the more recent additions to the M1710 performance line. SPECS (* Right click on pictures & select open in new window/tab for larger view) I purchased my latest machine in March of this year. This is my 6th XPS system, all of them being laptops. The specifications of my build were as follows: · M1710-Black · 2.33GHz Core 2 Duo T7600G (unlocked multiplier) 3.16GHz Max OC. · Nvidia 7950GTX 512 MB · Sigmatel Stac 9200HD Audio (2 main speakers 1 subwoofer) · 160GB...

Don't buy extra warrenty, dell is crap for support. They are based in inida for support and you can't understand them. Also when I rang them up with a problem with my media direct, they made me download the wrong software which did not work at all. The support is rubbish and also our paying for it. i think it was a 0800 number, this costs. I also asked to change my laptop to the m2010, they didn't allow me to, (they kept cutting me of when trying to do this, so I never found out the answer relly, they kept passing me through to someone else or putting me on hold then getting cut off) even my first m1710 screen was damaged and had to replace it. They are out of order, rubbish SUPPORT....

This is my rambling review of the DELL M1710. I want to get something posted soon, then I'll edit the first post as I add to it, so you may not be notified of updates. I'll do some comparisons to my Acer 8104 as I go along. (Size and weight were the first things that smacked me in the face.) I bought the lappie from a reseller in May 2006 and saved about a thousand bucks. There aren't many Dell resellers around now. I didn't neeeeeed a new laptop, but who can't drool over the latest and greatest. The price tipped the scales for me. UPDATES: (Each added to the bottom of this post, so you can go to the end and see what's new.) (Updated Sun. 21 May 2006: Added 3Dmark05...
