    Precision M4600

    •Graphics card options are as follows:
    AMD FirePro M5950 1GB GDDR5
    NVIDIA Quadro 1000M 2GB GDDR5
    NVIDIA Quadro 2000M 2GB GDDR5

    Precision M6600

    - New Precision laptops will be available from the mid of April 2011.

    - The optional Touch-screen for the M6600 will have 4-finger multi-touch, in addition to a stylus input (the new Latitudes only have a 2-finger touch capabilty option).

    - The Precision M6600 will have a "Performance-Boost" feature. Not sure if this is as simple as pressing a dedicated button or some other implementation.

    - The Precision M6600 will offer up to 4 external displays with NVIDIA's GPU, or up to 5 external displays with AMD's GPU.

    - Added the NVIDIA QUADRO 5010M. Just got confirmation that it will be offered begining from June 2011.

    An M4500 built like a M6500 sounds awesome! Can't wait to get one on order.

    Great, now they've offset the keyboard on the 15" Precision also (as well as the E6520)! Real ergonomic, Dell! And real fun on a plane (not that I would normally use a 15" on a plane).

    Some of us aren't accountants and don't want the @#&^@*!! numeric keyapd, Dell!

    They look pretty glossy, but then again I prefer it, as long as there is a good anti-reflective coating. I'm also starting to dig the new Latitude look more than the Precisions.

    Really I'm the exact opposite. As long as Precisions come with matte I'm happy. They at least kept a traditional notebook look with the Precisions. The new Latitudes looks like they were designed by a teenager for teenagers..
