Am I missing something?
I don't recall Dell offering a 1.5Ghz Core 2 Duo on the laptops until
this new batch.
An upgrade to a 1.8Ghz costs an extra $100, and to upgrade to one with

I recently read some laptop specs (forgot which model) that gave a
rated number of recharges for the laptop battery (about 1000) so that
got me wondering what is the best way to save the battery when
mobility isn't needed... plugged in or unplugged ?  

Has anyone seen the look of these new Dell's that were released today
(06/26/07)?  If you haven't, don't!  What the hell happened to Dell?
Offset keyboards, ugly case colors, and even the cheap gray keyboard
and media buttons.  They took what was working quite nicely, and threw

Hmmm Can I do this?
I have 2 dells (8250.....8400)
Both came with XP pro.
The 8250 came with SP1 and the 8400 SP2 ( about 2 years apart :-)  )

I just noticed a new version of the array manager on Dell's site.  Dell
hadn't released a version since the first, at least that I knew of, even
though there have been multiple Intel releases.  Not surprising.
I am going to be installing it, as it fixes my biggest problem with the

My old 9300 did and I liked. My daughter wants one for her college machine.

Just purchased a Dimension E520, and I'm not excited, it's just such a
hassle to set it up and transfer everything from the old PC.  I
suspect lots of folks would buy computers way more often if this
process was easier...

Just purchased a Dimension E520 (Vista) to replace my Dimension 4600
(XP Home). I'd like to be able to run both from the E520 (some XP
programs may not run under Vista, and it would alleviate the time
pressure from having to transfer everything at once)

I've found 2 official Dell options for my M1710. What am I getting
with the docking station over the port replicator? I can't find
examples of the "XPS™ Media Modules and media module battery charging"

can i put a apple monitor with my dell tower. some body please help me
answer my question.

Bought the e1405 two months ago, and I'm pleased with it. Today
spent time with a new Latitude equivalent, which has greater
functionality, better build quality, more connectivity. The
Latitude cost $300 more apples-to-apples, but seems to be worth

Just recently, and I wish I knew the exact date so I could go back and
pinpoint what might have happened, I've been having this weird issue
with my monitor when the Optiplex GX270 comes out of Standby mode.
I've got a Dell P992, 19 inch monitor, I use the official Dell drivers

Just out - new Inspirons and Dimensions incase anyone is interested!

Kinda worried about some programs working under Vista, maybe a
solution is to set up a dual-boot Vista/XP system?  Does that create
hassles on bootup, having to choose each time?  Can it be set up to
default to Vista?  If everything's working ok, is it a problem to then
