    The new Precisions are already out. The M4400 starts at $1500 - not that bad for a Precision. That's starting specs of course, but starting specs are actually pretty good in this case. Not quad core or 8 GB RAM, but certainly powerful.

    I love the video teaser. I'm curious about the price tag too though. 16GB, Quad-core, 1TB...wow!

    The teaser video seems to show 4 memory cards going into the machine. I hope so - 4x2GB is about GBP110 from Crucial, whereas 2x4GB is GBP550. So there is a chance that I can afford Quad Core and 8GB.

    Intel are apparently going to launch their mobile quad-core CPUs next week. Maybe Dell will give more details then? (More likely we will have to wait another month like we did for the E-Series)

    A few sites are reporting that the M6400 will be using two dual-cores, instead of a single quad-core.
