    Just ordered one of these to replace an ageing Latitude D830 that I'm borrowing off work. Previous laptop before that was a MacBook Pro. I'd love a macbook again but they are well out of my budget at the moment. The current 30% offer Dell is running helped tip the balance.

    specs are:

    Memory: 4GB (1x4GB) 1600MHz DDR3L Memory
    Hard Drive: 500GB Mobility Solid State Hybrid Drive
    Microsoft Operating System: Windows 8.1 (64Bit) English
    Wireless: Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 802.11 a/b/g/n 2x2 + Bluetooth 4.0 LE Half Mini Card
    Primary Battery
    Primary 6-cell 65W/HR Battery
    Processor
    4th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-4200U Processor (1.6 GHz, 3M Cache, Dual Core)
    LCD
    33.8cm (13.3") HD (1366x768) LED-backlit

    I ordered one of these with the base 2955U processor just to try some things out and see if my GF likes it, her lenovo just fried the motherboard. Seems like there are not too many people out there who like this model.

    I am getting one of these with 2GB graphic. Is that possible? Well that it the impression I have but I suppose I will know for sure tomorrow when I get to play with it.

    As far as I know, there is no option to get dedicated graphics... well in the US anyway.

    I find that the 3340 is just right for basic computing. Had has hit the mark in designing this particular model for students. Sadly though its parked under Latitude group so it is marketed under the business channel so it is not that widely available in the market for the general public, at least in this part of the world.
    The plastic material chosen for the casing will not catch the eye of casual pc shoppers I suppose but I belive given time the form will become acceptable if Dell manage to sell in enough numbers.
