Who here HAS a 3450 in their hands? - Questions...

I am in the phase process on my order for my 3450 but had a few really quick questions for someone who physically has one in front of them.

First the webpage says dimensions are
Height: .75”
Width: 13.06”
Depth: 9.5”
Weight: 5.5 lbs

It has already been confirmed thru John (first 3450 review sticky) that the height is NOT correct, that it was thicker than .75"

Can anyone tell me what the actual dimensions are vs the webpage dimensions since I am not trusting them at this point...

Thre reason I ask is because I want to find a nice laptop zippercase type thing and want to get smallest possible yet I sure am questioning the actual size due to that misleading height measurement.

I also wanted to ask what if any burning software comes with the 3450 if you choose the dvd burner option? Do they supply a copy of nero or anything or is that something I will need to go buy and add (so I can get it in advance).

Now if I can get out of Phase 3 things will be good!

Bill

Sorry bud, my Sentia won't be in my hands for a while, so I can't tell you the dimensions. I can tell you that, according to AW, the CD burner and CD/DVD burner are both listed as having software included. It isn't listed as "burning software" or what you get, but I would assume it would be burning software and probably Nero.

That makes sense. The side shots on AW's site show the back of the Sentia being a little thicker.

Still waiting in Phase 3 for mine , I hope to see it eter production after the holiday weekend is over

You probably wont see anything today. Its Labor Day and Alienware is closed from what I can see.
