    "What I had expected and more..."

    by RoosterD on November 29, 2005

    Pros: Great picture(true life 14.1), decent processor, light weight, MCE (recommend the remote)

    Cons: unable to upgrade graphics card, (intel integrated graphics)

    Summary: It took Dell 1 month to get it to me, but I feel it was worth it. Mine came with 1 dead pixel 3 rows up from the very bottom, so you can't really see it unless you're looking for it. It's really quiet. I think the best part is the remote. You have to order it extra for $20 or so, but once you plug it in to media center, it becomes a new component to your home theater. If you have a lot of music and movies on it, you just plug it into your tv and sit down with the remote. You don't have to touch the keyboard or mouse again. I had hoped that I could close the laptop and still get video on my tv, but it cuts it off... I'm still trying to figure that one out.
    Originally, I thought I would play games on it, but with a 3dmark '01 score of 5,000 I changed my mind :). I have a gaming PC anyway though so it didn't make that big of a difference to me.

    you probably figured it out by now already but in case that you didn't, go to desktop, go to properties, click on screen saver, click on power managment, and you know what to do then.
