new owner reporting in...blackie...k325...6 cells...1 year complete cover...

to-date... -mcafee +mse +orbit

my first impression

the good...build quality vs 1215n etc...keyboard and big pad...sound...overall "feel"...5+ hours
the bad.....small arrow keys...vga no screw...basic bios...limited lcd open angle
the ugly....loud fan/vibration (not sure if i have a bad unit...put on table will amplify the whining/humming sound...can really feel the vibration when put hand on it)...

what color are you?
...blackie...will skin it later...

ordered online...about a week to arrive...walked whole of lowyat and imbi and others...cannot find at the time...maybe too new...

pageup and pagedown now using multi touch...so much easier...

it is "laptopable"...if there is such a word...not too hot...but difficult to read because of the limited opening angle of the lcd...also very narrow viewing angle for optimal viewing...

having said that...thinking of getting another unit...hehehe...

QUOTE
how to use the multitouch

long way...

control panel->mouse->device setting->touchpad settings->scrolling->two-finger scrolling->enable horiz/vert/auto

go try other options too smile.gif

hope this helps

p/s...not sure if already activated by default...

i find this dell build quality better than similar asus and acer options...

its very stiff...so less flex...and hence i hope better/longer reliability...
