I dunno what it is, but the manual did say turning it off will sacrifice some battery power, but will improve performance.

And yes, I actually do read manuals. lol

Added on April 4, 2010, 6:58 pmHave anyone tried putting simcards into the simcard hole on top of the MMC/SD hole? Does it actually work? Or do you need to install some kind of shit?

Tested games with m11x that can work with full high setting so far:

TES Oblivion. Tweaked with a few performance enhancing mods though.

The Sims 3. Its a bit lag if play with high settings in a big town though. Smaller towns works like a charm.

Freedom Force vs The Third Reich. Very smooth, very good.

Heroes of Might & Magic 5 (with expansions). Pretty good as well.

Dragon Age Origins. Work with high setting, but a bit lag when in area with many characters. Medium setting works best.

Black & White 2. Great even with all high.

Works like a charm with my Viliv, and I'd foresee it working just on well on my M11X as a USB-powered external Blu-ray drive. rclxms.gif

My m11x seems to have something that looks like a particle of a dust stuck in the middle of its screen. Its not on the top layer, its on the gap between the front layer of the screen and lcd I think.

It happened just today. Not dead pixel since i can see it's shadow underneath it.

Can I somewhat remove it? Will Dell even remove it? Its not much, but its annoying as hell.

Good news everyone. (Futurama quote FTW)

Dell is sending someone to check out and replace the lcd. (yeah, they say they will replace it, I dunno why when I just asked them to clean the dust particles for me -.-)

I dont get it.

If you cant afford to buy original, get cheaper (or free) alternatives.

As example, why pirate photoshop when you can use GIMP or Photoscape, when both are free?

Microsoft Office? Well, theres Open Office. Also free.

Nero? I have Ashampoo Burning Studio, CDBurnerXP and InfraRecorder, all free.

Winrar? Winzip? Well, 7zip is your completely free solution.

I'm not saying that I'm perfectly free of pirated shit, but I do try my best to find alternatives. And if I can afford it, I'll buy it. You can also try to get the company's copy, if you;re entitle to it (like my Adobe suite: I'm one of their IT multimedia staff and Microsoft Office). And even if I do have some pirated shit, I dont brag about it out loud.

Lolx , chill guys on the piracy/original area.
From my point , and as a Junior game designer myself , ill of course support people to buy ori , but thats from that point of view. From an average income gamer area , it takes me at most 3 days to finish 1 game. I  strongly feel a waste to pay 100+ which only last me 3 days then goes into the recycle bin. Every month , im playing like 5-8 different games , and thats gonna cost half of my allowance , so the althenative and find the crack  . For those who can afford ori, by all means , but do please take note not all people feel its worth the cash and can fork out that cash. Buying an alienware doesnt mean we are rich or must buy ori only products to sustain our status. By paying only 4k , u already can own an alienware , which the whole market has now a days .
We buy the best gaming laptops because we need its performance
We buy original software (windows, office , flash, etc) because we cant use pirated in our work can we ? (Id rather download then pay 9k last time for my adobe cs4 )
But for games , does our pc only run ori games ? Is there difference in gameplay for ori and crack ? Frankly , NO. Pay 100 + or crack it , you choose .
Probably the best bet for pirated games to be ban from the market is the "OnLive" but that will not come into malaysia =/
So , im a proud owner of an M17X and im not ashame of playing with crack versions for my allowance only permits that much.
But thats my 2cent , im sure you guys also have ur own perspective on the matter xP

Actually, if you actually plan your purchased games well, it can lasts you for quite a while.

I played Oblivion since the day it comes out. Theres always user-created-stuffs that comes out every months for you to mod and add variety and fun to the game.

And yeaaaaah... I've been playing The Sims series for... Wow... Its been 10 years now. That series was worth every single penny.

As for the 3-days-game, you buy it, you play it, you finish it, you sell it. Done. Rinse and repeat.

Stringfellow , u play my games pirated i dont care nor mind , i wont get upset , what i want is people to play my game and talk about it ! If the whole world were to pirate my game , i would frankly be glad because , wow ! My game is great that everybody wants to play it ! Thats my objective and pride of a game designer =)

That is of course, before your company suffer a lost because it dint make enough money to generate a profit and they have to let you go since they cant afford to pay you anymore. And at that time, I would like to see how your 'objective' would help you to support your family.

Sure. While you're carrying that ideology, why not go to 7-11, get some drinks and snacks and put it in your bag. You know theres tonnes of people going to actually buy them, thus supporting the store.

Heck, why not just go to all the clothing store, and grabs some too? Surely other people will pay for their clothes, rite?

if its a free legitimate copy, why not? like i said, if you cant afford it, just find free/cheaper alternatives. Just address it to Emino, Agrobank (System Development Dept.). Im sure you can find the address from google. tongue.gif

yeah i'm pretty disappointed at having an SU processor there.

I actually like it with this processor. I dont think I can find any other laptop that I can play Heroes Might and Magic 5 for 5 straight hours on my recent trip to Penang. That game can run with the highest settings on the integrated graphic, so I dont have to switch on the performance mode. They are trying to save power here, thus the low powered CPU is implemented.

Although I do pity my brother who drove the car for 5 straight hours. hehe
