Did barcode get in trouble or what? I did get A03, but it seems to crash my laptop pretty much everytime I go from battery->dock.

Anyone else seen this?

lol No i didn't get in trouble Dell Obviously reads these forums cause I got a email from my source saying global Engineering was shocked to see the bios here for download and strickly was not to be given out or shared and as a good will i removed any bios traces. You just have to wait for Dell to officially release them.

Hope you don't get any trouble with Dell oder the guy who gave the Bios to you, cause you guys rock...

Dell better should get their ass moving and build a official A03 and provide it as Download, I can only repeat my opinion it's ridiculous...

A03 is said to be shipping next week with overclocking features for the 7600G processor, as announced (by Dell) at NYC digital life a few days ago. Who knows how long it will be before the BIOS is officially available for download though.

Good news sounds nice, now where can we get these T7600G processors from? Intel doesn't offically list them as t7600g's

You can buy it from Dell, it's already up on the configuration pages. Real details are still scarce - I can't find a datasheet yet, even with my Intel developer login, only a limited amount of NDA protected stuff. I don't have any official Intel pricing to compare against, but if it turns out to be unlocked multipliers, like the extreme (desktop) series, pricing has really dropped. http://www.notebookforums.com/post2447871.html
