Dell :: Type Of Laptop User Would Notice A Difference Between 3m And 6m Caches
Feb 28, 2009
Do to some problems with my current e6400, DELL is giving me a refund and I will likely buy another with different specs. My current laptop has a T9400.
Considering I only use basic computer software (Outlook, iTunes, some proprietary CRM software and Excel), what benefits are there for me to go for another 6m cache as opposed to saving some money and getting say a P8600 3m?
Would I notice the performance difference between a T9400 or 9500 and a P8600? (im also trying to keep the temps down as much as possible too.)
I use this laptop in an E-Port with TWO external displays.

Heya im planning on buying my XPS 16 within the next 2months.
Ive seen that there ATi 4670 costs £50 more than the 3670,
and as im currently unemployed £50 is alot of money.
I play games on ps2, not laptop anymore though, so wont be needing graphics card for gaming.
But so would the 4670 actually provide any other advantages in like laptop speed when surfing net and having multiple pages open at same time,
or increase speed when watching movies online? ect

1. Is it a MXM type laptop?
2. Would the new Intel 80GB SSD work in it?
3. How about 6GB RAM?

Here is the article from Economic Times of India,
COMPUTERmajor Dell India has been issued notice by a district consumer court here for allegedly over-pricing products and supplying a faulty laptop to a customer.
A consumer court in Shalimar Bagh, while issuing notice to Dell India earlier this week, asked the firm to file its response by December 21, the next date of hearing.
The court was hearing the plea of Archer Softech Pvt Ltd through its advocate Ankur Raheja, who alleged that the Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop it bought for Rs 69,164 (Approx $1440) turned out to be faulty. He also said that the company was not ready to replace or repair the product.

I received a brief pop-up notice that there was an important BIOS upgrade for my Inspiron 7720 and then when I went out to the Dell Support Link there is a one paragraph stating that there is a critical new BIOS update. I had hope to read more about the update and what it required but there was nothing. So I clicked on the link, this launched a download of a file - 7720A13.exe and nothing else.Â
How am I to distinguish this file from a SPAMMER sending me a file?

I was just experimenting with some drivers and found something interesting. Default Hight Definition drivers from microsoft deliver an absolute clean an uncolored sound.
Yes, IDT drivers somehow modify the equalization providing more bass, even when natural bass is disabled in the control panel. I can assure you this because I'm running my sound with studio monitors.

I posted a message here yesterday looking for FatTire cause I would like to discuss sealing my boards against moisture and installing some cooling plates.
The reactionary admins erased my message before it could be recieved, so hopefully this time the message will remain untill I can get in contact with Fat Tire and discuss how to mod my laptop.
I am posting in this forum because FatTire was in on a discussion in THIS forum that exactly matches what I am attempting to do now in another forum. So even though I am chatting about this in the Alienware forum,
(as I am working on an Alienware laptop mod), I am CROSSSPOSTING here in an attempt to contact an expert who has not done this mod on an Alienware laptop before to my knowledge.

Is there any kind of user's manual or documentation for the XPS 16, beyond what is shipped with the laptop? For example, I think I read the brightness of the keyboard backlight can be adjusted, but I'm not sure how.
I'm just wondering if there is a user manual on the machine or online that describes this and other things that are covered within software help guides

How would I find out if the Dell Image Restore/Recovery Partition was still present on a Dell Latidude D630 ?
I am going to look at the machine with a view to purchase it and the vendor states the HDD is 148gb but the service tag factory configuration indicates 160gb. The missing 12gb tends to make me think the restore/recovery partition may still be intact ?
Were the D630's all shipped with a recovery partition irrespective of the operating system, ie, XP or Vista or was it O/S related ?

It's been over a full week that I use my Latitude E6400 in great depth and here is my review on it. Now, before I start, I would like to apologies for my English, mistakes found are not done by any means of disrespect among you, the reader. Another note, I believe reading several reviews which all says the same thing is kind of useless, so I tried my best to present thing that was not mentioned before. This explains the reason why I don’t show the usual benchmarks, temperature on the machine, etc…
If this is the first review you read, I suggest you to read other reviews on notebookreview.com before reading this one. You can see me as a critical person.
Latitude E6400 Review
I use my laptop to run Office 2007 suit programs to type notes in classes, Steinberg WaveLab 5 to record them. I also use the laptop to do my assignments (Java/C++) at school and anywhere I want to go, as well as my own programming projects (large Flash application). Obviously, I use my machine to check my e-mail with Thunderbird, listen to music, and surf the web, etc... Ah yes, and I do plan to perform some light casual gaming on it on rare occasion.

When I received my laptop two weeks ago, it was damaged, there was a dent, passing through the process of asking a new one and compensation was easy. I was never put on hold, service was great and in proper English speaking staff (possible location of service: U.S/Canada). I had fun trying all to call all the provided services offered, and the service was very good, one could say almost excellent. I negotiated the price of my machine when I originally ordered it (this was the only time I talked to someone potentially in India), and the service was fast, again no hold time, and negotiation on the price was easy. The sale representative didn't know his stuff on the laptop and claimed to me that it had Latitude ON. Obviously I don't have it, as it cannot be added to the machine, and I asked compensation for that as well. This was done without issue, and I got an apology from the sale representative and its supervisor and Dell customer service supervisor (note that I also got another apology from Dell customer service when I informed them of the damaged machine).
Returning the machine for a replacement was easy and fast. Dell sent me a UPS label via e-mail, which I had to print and put on the Dell box, and call UPS to come and pick it up.
Packaging
Packaging of the laptop was excellent. The box properly protected the machine, and the size is not excessively big where it wastes uselessly space, and not too small like some laptops that you buy in store, which fells like it was made from paper masher. Moreover, putting everything back in the box was very easy. The packaging could potentially lose a full mark as the accessory box is pretty much empty and could make the box smaller. However, considering that more accessories could be added onto the box, and that the box layout is designed for all or almost all Dell laptops, I can't deduct marks for that.
I gave it a 10/10
Accessories
Not much to say, I did get 4 disks with my laptop:
- Drivers and Utility disk
- Power DVD DX 8.0 disk
- Roxio version 9.0 DE disk
- Microsoft Vista 64-bit disk.
and 90W slim Latitude power adapter which I'll get to that later...........

Wondering if the the CPU and / or GPU on the Precision M4400 / M6600 are user upgradeable? Both in terms of is it physically possible and how does it affect warranty. If it voids the warranty, how likely is it that they can tell that it was upgraded if you swap the oringinal components back in before sending it in.

I own an XPS M1530 with a WXGA+ screen. My wife has a Studio 15 with a WXGA TL (CCFL) screen.
Why does dust seem to stick to the screen much more and faster on the Studio than on my XPS?
we use both laptops on the same environment... has the screen type have something to do with this?

After having HP/Compaq notebooks for the last several years I decided to go with Sony this time. I got the VGN-NW270F model.
Overall I'm really pleased with it. I especially love this keyboard style. I do a ton of typing and this keyboard is just great.
This is not so much a complaint as a question. I've never noticed this on other laptops before so maybe this is common to all, or maybe it's common to Sony or this particular model, not sure. But the chassis around the screen doesn't feel tight.
I noticed this when closing it the other night. It's not falling apart or separating or anything, but it just doesn't feel snapped/glued (whatever) in place. Also, on the left and right sides below the screen, it kind of pushes out a little. You can feel it, and only slightly see it if you're really looking.
I know this seems like a minor issue (if even that) so I'm not complaining. I'm just curious as to whether this is normal or if it's something that could potentially get worse.

Well, I almost bought a base FW390, decided to wait so I could buy a upgraded version, and after using both a FW and MBP at best buy I am in love with the MBP.
Now, its quite a chunk of change and will be awhile before I can buy one but I wanted to hear from unbiased users about the cons of a MBP, i've heard stories on overheating units, bad wifi reception etc, etc.
So let me know MBP users, what do you hate about your notebook?

I have an Inspiron 1501 - it's old but it woks great.. I tried updating the BIOS following the instructions on the Dell site. I repeatedly get the Winphlash User Interface has stopped working. What is the proper technique to do this BIOS update without errors? I don't get any instructions on line - only a DOS type window then it disappears.
Also on the Dell site re Drivers, It finds my Service Tag and then I get the message that my operating system Windows Vista Home Basic is not available on the machine --but it was bought from DELL with this OS?

I indent to get a dell studio 1537, but the shop where I want to buy it doesn't specify which kind of display it has.
Also their tech support is to dumb to get the info from anywhere else except their own page. (they provided a link to the 1555 model to get the resolution from there... duh).
http://www.emag.ro/notebook_laptop/n...32WNHD345T3BRD
My questions are, what resolutions are in the 1537 ? I want one with 1440x900 so, is there the posibility to get a 1280x800 one ? or all the 1537 and ATI 3450 come with at least 1440x900 .....
