Maybe you can try your luck in Garage Sales ...

Right Click Computer > Manage > Disk Management > Right Click C: > Shrink Volume....

Can also use the Sofware (EASUS) that kucing mentioned

Remember to post unboxing pictures ...and do some review from your POV

Yup, this is true..well, that's PC Fair for you...for sure got freebies that comes with the unit without any extra charges

1. Well, if you use HTT powered apps & also need some power raw processing then i7 would be nice but for gaming, i5 is the best for now

2. i7 model comes with Backlit Keyboard ..already stated in the Also Include section

3. Varies on user/person...some like red while some like silver..which is which really depends on you, i say red is nice but for you, might be or might not be

The beauty of Dell is that you can customize the laptop according to your taste ..one of the reason why buying online is preferable ...the main reason why got no in stock for Vostro 3700 is that, the shop might have thought that the already built one 3700 won't be as much as a seller than buying online ...

Well, to make sure...just use another cable and see if the problem still happen..if the problem solved after changing the cable,then its for sure cable problem but if not, then maybe you can try re-install your driver ...see, can do or not

Maybe you can ask them to deliver straight to your office instead ..well, from 9-2pm is quite a long time range ..or you can ask your boss be excused for a bit

Well, in school should be fine..you can tell the administrative office to take it for you...well, some of my friends are teachers and usually the office will received the items & then call the teacher to pick it up @ office

No need to be a business man, even a student/employee can get this service...just the title being 'Business On-site' because it fell under the Business-line laptop

If still under warranty then no need to pay ..i got one Latitude Series before, 3 years on-site warranty...on the 2nd year my MOBO fried for no reason and they come fixed it without any payment ...

Well, Dell is the BEST in after sales service ...RM299 for 3 years on-site warranty is the best you can get ...better to be cautious then not if the any problem would happen later

Well, if you ask me then its a NO definitely because its just one level higher clocked than 430M..better stick with 430M, unless you think you want 520M which in a way can give you a little boost in raw processing than 430M...

Well, we never know what will happen in the future so its better to select the Complete Unit Cover, just in case

I think the normal/cheap keyboard protector would be sufficient enough for it ..i dun think you will find any that designed for it

This really depends on user..some prefer charging it for 8 hours straight upon received but for some, doing a clean install (exclude Alienware) is a must ...

You can also just use it the way you received it, won't be any harm there ...

Added on May 3, 2010, 11:47 amWell, mine would be:

1. Use the battery till its dead on first run with the pre-installed OS
2. Charge it till full and then do a clean format/installation if not satisfy with the pre-installed

Just charge it till full ...when you see the charging light off, then unplugged the AC adapter ...or maybe when it reaches 100%

9 cells can just hold off for 3 hours ..now that totally draining up ...any 12 cells for this 3700??

Patience my friend, well the status sometime are not accurate, got some cases where on shipping in status but the next day it arrived
