So, after reading what people have been saying about the 8800GTX fitting into an M1710, I have another theory. I think Dell is going to be putting the Go8800GTX in the M2010.
Of course, I'm probably totally wrong about this, but here's why I think it may happen:
M1710 isn't capable of housing this card.
M1710 can't handle the necessary power to run this card.
M1710 doesn't have adequate cooling options for this card.
Besides these reasons, I also have another idea about why it could be going into the M2010.
I always get onto Costco.com to check out what they're selling from Dell in the laptop market. Sometimes they will stop selling a particular "Pre-configured" laptop from Dell because they're changing something about it, for example, new graphics card option. Just the other day, I noticed that they stopped selling the M2010 on Costco's website. The only reason they would do this is if Dell was changing up the config, meaning it's possible that Dell said, "don't sell any more M2010s because we're about to upgrade it with the Go8800 to coincide with the Vista release later this month."
Again, this is just a theory, but why would Costco stop offering the M2010 on their website all of the sudden? They've always had it since it came out, and so I think it's a little strange that Costco has suddenly taken it down right before the Vista release.
Any ideas, comments, flames?
