New support for the Nvidia Quadro FX 3500M. Anyone know anything about this video card I googled and couldn't fine anything on it? Is it like the 7950GTX? Also did anyone get their hands on the M90_03 bios?

It's most definitely the Quadro version of the 7950.

Heh figures, I knew I should have waited to order my M90. Oh well it will work well enough and should be here on Monday, though I don't remember getting the next day shipping.

Wow that is much different then what was on dell support update site. It only said that it added support for the nVidia Quadro FX3500M. That is very interesting.

Yes. Since the 1710 and the M90 share a motherboard and most other parts, it seemed reasonable to assume that their bios updates would have similar upgrades too.
