just preparing

Hello V3~ New thread always smells good

Btw, i got fuxx-ed up just now.Just realised Dell increased the P8700 configuration from RM3599 back to RM3799 Totally unaware of this and was going to order tomorrow

Damn!!!!

Added on February 5, 2010, 10:46 ambro which year n month u bought sxps ?

This post has been edited by outlife11: Feb 5 2010, 10:46 AM

Seriously cannot tahan already Calling up Dell later regarding my case

Looks like Dell SXPS 13 has been removed from Dell USA..

Expecting a new refresh! Core i5 at least? with GT335M? or HD5650? hahahahahaha....

or just 310M =.=''

LEt's hope not.. ill ditch the M11x for this baby if it provides up to 6 hours battery life? haha.. If thats possible through Intel HD graphics in the Arrandale Core i5/Corei7?

Probably with i3 and the lower end HD5000 series

Well, the current line from Arrandale isn't really optimized in their power consumption, so not much different from the c2d + gma4500mhd setup except in idle mode.
The Q2 Arrandale perhaps would give better battery life.

As for m11x, it uses ULV + gma to reach 6 hours, doubt i5/i7 + Intel HD can reach there

huhu.. 9-cell?

oh wait m11x has 8-cell so its up to 6 hours normal use on IGPU

Weee!!!! New thread! Good job guys! Saw a gal using an SXPS 16 in campus yesterday

Added on February 5, 2010, 6:10 pmBtw, kytz

P8700 got RM200 Instant Cash Redemption wat... So 3799-200 still 3599 right...

This post has been edited by cain: Feb 5 2010, 06:10 PM

@cain

Get me the gurl's picture jk

No lerr..RM3799 includes the RM200 rebate starting from today.Yesterday it was RM3599 including RM200 rebate..meaning that Dell increased the base price

Somehow i managed to get it at RM3599 instead

Cain, how's your laptop purchase now?

This post has been edited by -kytz-: Feb 5 2010, 06:57 PM

I'm not desperate yet... Hoping Dell would upgrade the SXPS's GPU, maybe when they refresh the SXPS 13...? Anyway, i'm willing to wait until June/July, so still a long way to go
