No USB 3.0 ? better buy apple or has USB 3.0 Model. I test USB 3.0 external Harddisk transfer data arround 80-120MB persecond. used USB 2.0 driver also litter fater USB 2.0 port.

If not has usb 3.0, much has thunderbolt, that for the future recommanded.

I did! I lurked around this forum for 2 whole months! And still, I couldn't convince them that the item was for free, maybe it was because there was no solid evidence to prove that it was free, no newspapers bought at the time...

The temps so far is bearable, not that I have done any intensive activities yet, I just got done installing some core programs but so far it's lukewarm during without a cooler... I'm happy, compared to my old dv3, this is such an upgrade....

I love the keyboard, the touchpad and the speakers! The keyboards do not flex at all, comfortable typing and the touchpad has great response although it lags a little during two-finger scrolling... The speakers? Love it... Loud and clear even at close to max volume... Great location and positioning as well...

Switching gpu is easy with a click of a button....

What else? I haven't done any gaming yet so can't say much...

A few qualms about this laptop is that the USB 3.0 ports are so difficult to plug in and out of! You need both hands lol.... and the up and down keys should definitely be bigger.... and it's a fingerprint magnet!! Especially at the palmrest and the lids... ugh! I hate wiping it, it gets worse!

The power button IS small but I don't have any trouble switching this baby on...

A feature I would like for it to have is a touch/swipe panel for volume levels/mute, play/pause etc. buttons like my old dv3... would give it a little something extra....

And it is quite heavy compared to my old dv3 so I had some trouble adjusting...

The screen is great, clear and glossy just the way I like it...

Well, you know I'm a girl by the way I review this - can't give you any further more than the physical aspects of this baby... Anyways, a personal rating of 8/10!

Check again in a few years, see if I change my mind....

Added on April 17, 2011, 7:40 pmcompare more model to got perfect, that is very important. New Dell has a higher temperature is true. DV6 not USB 3.0 Also is true.
I want to ask. why not a lower temperature with USB 3.0 + Thunderbolt product ?
But I believe end of this year, may has a perfect product.

for examples, why apple not a product 1 USB 3.0, 1 USB 2.0 + Thunderbolt ? why not used USB 3.0 ? that backward compatible. So, that not a IT, only 'Money (Bussiness)problems'.

Please about this. we play computer ? or computer play me/you ?

not perfect, on bussiness because that can't do it, if do it, who update/buy new computer again !

So, think about this real world !

'If' Thunderbolt becomes a success ? how about IE1394, now only for DV. Why apple not used USB 3.0 + Thunderbolt ?
If apple want success of thunderbolt, why Not only support thunderbolt, apple can cut the USB 2.0 Too !
USB 3.0 IS very OK. why not use ? also backward compatible USB 2.0, why not change Use USB 3.0 ? why ? Why ?

Now market many USB 2.0 product, you think user like plug the card on thunderbolt to use usb 2.0 product ?


The main point. I think for user, you can choice:
1.
USB 2.0 + USB 3.0 + Thinderbolt

2.
USB 3.0 + USB 3.0 + Thinderbolt

3.
USB 2.0 + USB 2.0 + Thinderbolt

I think only stupid user choice '3.'. So, that a important ! apple only need gain many maney, not thinking user need.
you known Iphhone main cost(For all) only US175, Sell US600, Gain 60%. You can gain many, but please thinking about user need !

What are you talking about lol? Did you know why Thunderbolt was exclusively first on Apple? Because few years ago Apple proposed this idea(lightpeak) to Intel to develop it... As of now, Thunderbolt is still a very new thing that is only going to work in the next 2-3 years, Apple just
integrated it so that their Macbooks are more future proof... If Thunderbolt becomes a success, USB 3.0 is gonna be obsolete in 3-4 years...
Congratz! I guess they must be scared of ur daddy haha
