Dell M90 – Coming soon

Watch for my upcoming review of the Dell M90. I ordered it today and expect it to be here in just a couple of weeks. I’ve been using my Compaq Presario (AMD Athalon64, 1.25Gigs RAM, nVidia GeForce4 440, 40 Gig hard drive, 15.4" widescreen, WinXP Home) for a year now, although the laptop itself is almost two years old. It’s been good to me, but lately it’s been having a hard time with SW ‘06 and it flat out won’t run SW ‘07. After reading some reviews and doing a little research, I settled on the M90. What’s the configuration? I honestly don’t remember. (I know, I know, a little too young for the Alzheimer’s to be setting in…). I believe, and I will confirm this in a later post, that it has the Intel 2 Duo core, nVidia 2500m, 2 Gigs of Ram and an 80 Gig hard drive with a 17" display, running XP Pro, and a CDRW/DVD combo drive (I already have an external DVD burner, so why spend the extra $$). Naturally, I feel like a kid just before Christmas. It can’t get here soon enough!

So, dear reader, stay tuned for the upcoming adventures as I take my new laptop out for a test drive…

If you have anything in particular that you want me to do to, er, with it, let me know. I want to put it through its paces.
