Review of Dell XPS M1710

I got this laptop for work because of its power, graphics capability and looks. The core2duo processor handles most applications very comfortably, and the 512MB graphics card deals with complicated CAD software at work very well. Heavyweight Champion of the World: The main critiscism I have of this laptop is the size and weight. It's HUGE, measuring around 290mmx400mmx50mm. This does of course mean that you get a lovely wide screen with high resolution, ...
...a laptop bag that it fits in! The screen quality is very good, and the widescreen makes it easy to watch movies and TV without the need for another monitor. The keyboard is still a standard laptop-sized one, which is a shame when with a machine of this size there was plenty of room for a separate number pad. Light and Sound Spectacular: This laptop has a fantastic set of speakers for a portable machine, and it even has a built-in subwoofer for ...

Review of Dell XPS M1710

...best bit about buying from Dell is the fact you can customise just about everything. I upgraded the processor speed (2 x 2.16Ghz in a laptop!) and got a gig of RAM. It came as standard with 100Gb hard drive and a nVidia GeForce Go 7900GS video card. My only gripe was that it comes preloaded with loads of trial software, but that's easily removed. I actually used the McAfee 90 day trial suite. Hey, three months free? Nice. Onto performance, this ...
...and yes, the pretty side lights do add to the cool factor. The screen resolution is 1920 x 1200, so will play most games at their highest settings. Games that I've heard need high end desktop power play no problem. The dual core means it multi-tasks well. Playing games while doing a virus scan and downloading all at the same time is not an issue. Also, as it's an XPS, you get dedicated phone support with proper games advice, not that I've ever needed ...

Review of Dell XPS M1710

I have owned the XPS for a year now, If you're a hard-core gamer looking to play the newest games at the highest settings, this is one of the best systems on the shelves at the moment. I spend quite a lot of the time on the move due to my job, I enjoy playing games but what use would a Desktop PC sat at home be while I'm hardly ever there? Then I came across the XPS M1710, which buying on line allows you to setup your own specifications before purchasing. ...
...like I am, you will be willing to put this on your shopping list, but I must admit at the time of entering my bank number for the purchase, I did cringe a little but now I've had it a while and have enjoyed my gaming through this technical wonder, I haven't looked back! Now let's see what makes this what it is. Underneath this stylish bonnet lies an Intel Core 2 Duo T7600 CPU running 2.33Ghz and with a maximum choice of 4GB RAM which is impressive ...

Review of Dell XPS M1710

...performance. I purchased from Dell because I believed they were a reputable manufacturer of a PC that would last me for many years to come (well, at least 10). But, as I found, with some things in life, all that glitters, is not gold! A very expensive, high-end laptop, which, eventually, appears destined to fail prematurely. For whatever reason, the graphics card will expire due to faulty manufacture/design. My own example, started to stop with ...
...of getting it repaired with anything other than a similar (likely short-lived) graphics card. Look on the Internet and the Dell forums/knowledge base. Nvidia fault . . and, so far, no recall from Dell! Yes, brilliant machine . . . shame about the customers! Regards Tim(tim.stewart@virgin.net) ...
