add me in the list, just receive my studio 1555 today.

why u all can run window 7? i already register for window 7 upgrades from vista home premium but didnt receive any email about the new window 7????

i have problem with my wifi 5100 on s1555. it can connect to my home network, but after some time (randomly) the internet connection is lose. the wifi is still connected to the network, but i cant browse the internet. then i have to disable and enable back the wifi to get back the internet connection. i am using vista 64 bit. what might be the problem? and i already use latest driver from dell website for the wifi 5100. help...

any news on the window 7 free upgrade for vista home premium? after i register for that upgrade, i only receive one email saying that i will be informed once the new window 7 is available for order..

still nothing today..

i am using CM Notepal U2. this model you can adjust the location of the fan, so you can put the fan at the hottest spot, which is below the touchpad.

hey, if you change your processor to core i7, then your p8700 want sell? i want to change my t6600 to p8700... any improvement on the performance from t6600 to p8700?

that means all studio 1555 cannot upgrade processor? the processor is "mounted" on the main board?

hey, i just complete the registration/order for window 7 upgrade, but it didnt charge me the shipping? anything wrong? i heard got shipping charge one??

i successfully registered, but also after few try. if it can success will be very fast. but if it hang after the validate, i guess the only thing u can do is try again later.

about Dell vs Asus, i own studio1555 and one of my friend own asus K50. both spec very similar, but i have HD screen. performance is quite equal, but for build quality, i have to say that asus have better build quality, especially the "lcd lid" at asus K50 which is more solid. and for asus K50, the temperature of the laptop is very low, not sure why, compared to studio 1555, where the touchpad sometimes very hot.

but what asus K50 dont have is the HD screen, hdmi output, backlight keyboard...

for dell and asus, i will go for dell because of the full HD lcd. its hard to find 15 inch laptop with full hd feature. but asus definitely have better build quality. its best that you go to some pc store to really "look" at both model. then only u choose.

hey, i buy direct from dell also, but i deal with the sales person directly. send email to them, give spec, and ask them quote a best price. and i got it a bit cheaper from dell website. you can ask them to call u, then you can talk to them. previously i deal with this guy: Daniel_Ong@dell.com. you can try email him if you want...

hey, do u all think that the part under touchpad is really hot if u didnt use a laptop cooler? i am thinking of installing a micro fan, inside that part, do u think is possible? the micro fan i am talking about is something like this: http://www.ferret.com.au/c/Switches-Plus-C...n-NKW32-n816051 anyone got source of where to get one of this? and any idea to get the 5V from the inside of this studio 1555?

and what is actually at that part? is it graphic card? or the heat is cause by the wifi?

notepal u2 i buy from lowyat plaza. the performance is quite good, since you can adjust the fan location to the hottest area. at least you wont fell so hot at the touchpad there. but my laptop actually move around a lot, like at night, the laptop will be at my room, and working hour at office. so, bringing the laptop cooler around is not that convenience. i found this company called sunon, http://www.sunon.com/products/products_new.htm, they have super small size fan, the smallest one is 8x8x3mm (only 3mm thickness). and i am sure if i can get one, it can fit inside the studio1555. its either blow the air out or in, at least the air is moving. anyone know where can find this SUNON mighty mini fan?

i just installed window 7 upgrade from dell. receive it few days ago. nice!

ya, seems like everything is good. driver all no problem, a lot driver already installed after the window 7 installation. and it got give another license sticker, dont know where to "stick".

if you didnt find the sticker where you find the cd key? the sticker should be stick on the cd's envelope. and dont misunderstand, the sticker we talk about here is the license sticker, not the window 7 logo sticker.

the upgrade kit reach after around 2 weeks from the date i successfully register the upgrade.

hi all, want to intro a small application that turn off your screen after u run this application. for some laptop, there is key to turn off the screen, but for studio 1555, you cant turn off the screen unless u close the lid. so, try out this application:
