The beefiest CULV notebook we've ever seen is here, and pricing is keen.
Hey guys, I really want to get this but I have some concerns.
I will be choosing the SU7300, and 4GB ram option.
Will this laptop be enough to do light programming such as Matlab and C++.
Also, will the 'slower' CPU affect the speed and performance for general uses such as web surfing, and watching HD videos...?
Cheers
£300 upgrade cost for a 256gb SSD, is that right, seems too good value? I'm not sure you can buy a 256gb SSD for £300.
I'm sure Dell can get a better price on them than pretty much anyone else and it is an upgrade cost. Still, you are right, thats at least £100 cheaper than you'd expect looking at retail prices (£470?).Quote:

Why use old CPUs on new product launches? Wouldn't this be better with a 520UM CPU?
18W as opposed to 10W on the SU4100, yet with the build in GPU, would make up for the extra power needed to power the separate IGP and provide the extra performance.
Not good enough in my books, sorry.
Intel GFX on a 'gaming laptop'? In fact "intel", "GPU" and "performance" in the same sentence? The IGP GFX are just for running the desktop and the key selling point (hopefully) for a CULV form factor laptop is the performance of the discrete GFXQuote:

If you weren't keen on Dell's Alienware M11x notebook when it was first unveiled back at CES, you may just have been swayed by the proposed $799 starting price.
Turns out that proposed figure was right on the mark for US customers, but as expected, the UK starting price of £750 doesn't quite reflect the current exchange rate.
Yup, it's a bit of a rip off for us in the UK. Dell, you suck for the home user.
