Need more details on m4400...

Hello all,

I still haven't decided on whether to get an m4400 or an m6400. I have questions on the m4400.

1. Does the LED screen that is available support full Adobe color spectrum?

2. Is the webcam seriously a pathetic 0.3 megapixels? Why not the normal 2 megapixels?

3. Does the 9-cell stick out the back, or does it fit flush like the 6?

Any light you can shed on these questions would be greatly appreciated!

 

1. I'm pretty sure it is not full Adobe gamut. Those will come out later on specifically stating full gamut. Besides, you can be sure if it were, Dell would splash it on their tech specs as another selling point.

2. 0.3mp is a technical term that says the same thing that it is a 640x480 maximum resolution webcam. 640x480 = 307200 pixels, or roughly 0.3 mega pixels. Often the manufacturer is limited by the slimline design of their laptops. There is simply not enough space to go with a higher megapixel camera. For example, the older 1*00 series of Vostro laptops had 2mp cameras, and there were a lot of people complaining of the thickness of it. Compare that to their newer 1*10 series, and the difference is remarkable. It is a low resolution, but will do fine for web conferencing (which is what it is for in a business notebook) and webcam and the odd picture or two, but don't expect magical moment shots.

3. Yes, the 9 cell it sticks out the back compared to 6 cell.
