i FINALLY ordered my i9100!!!!

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
Hey all,

Well, after reading this forum for countless hours, and about one hour beforehand, I finally ordered! I was so hesitant to drop the cash, but I've got a pretty decent job and I've wanted a lappy since about April. At first I was looking at the I1150's, and as time went on, I just wanted more and more! That's what always happens to me, I've had a $7,000 stereo setup in my (standard cab) F-150 before. Anyhow, here are the specs:

i9100
3.2 WUXGA
60GB 7200rpm
128mb MR9700
512mb pc3200 (going to order 2x512 corsair XMS before the i9100 arrives)
8x DVD-RW/R
1350 wireless
A960 printer, copier, scanner, standalone fax
(and thanks to many people here, esp. rogueone) 3yr limited mail in + 3yr CC

I got all this for 2462 including tax, shipping, the printer, yada yada. I was real hesitant but they came out with the 15% code again, so I said F*** it, I'm doing it. To many people's dismay, I blew 1/4th of my financial aid, but half is grants so essentially, half is free! j/k

Anyhow, I'm not much of a gamer, except for addicitnggames.com, so I hope this lappy is sufficient to run MS word and excel for school! That, and being my digital darkroom and video editor.

Thanks again to all who have helped me, Let's see if this thing really ships on 9/9!

Congrats on your new toy! That should be more than enough for MS Word, Excel, and the others!

On second thought, the new Microsoft Office minimum system requirement is:

P4 3.2 EE processor or AMD 64
Atleast 2 gig ram
256 video card memory

Just kidding...

I'm totally stoked, right now I'm using a Duron 1.3ghz with 384mb pc133, maybe pc100, i don't even know!!!
Anyone here know how long it'll probably take? Is Dell really that bad with timelines?
