New M6500 Discussion Thread

Well, you have the same LCD panel I ordered and they say they wont be in till Jan 25.

Its amazing that NVida wants 250$ for that accell

I highly doubt that 50 watt charger will run the 6500. I have a charger that is defective and it doesnt put out the full 130, my m90 wont start with it.

 

Yep, same here. My original estimated ship date was 29 December. It was delayed until 6 January because of the memory (DDR3 1600). I just received an e-mail stating it will be delayed again until 13 January. I am really contemplation cancelling the order as I am tired of dell's misinformation in regards to the availability of parts, not to mention the sales representative, he is by far, the worst I've seen, not because of the delays, but because he never returns my calls or e-mails requesting updated information for my order.

So what do you guys think? Am I overreacting, or do you think my frustration is justified?

 

just got my update from fedex, its arriving today , now as for the charger, why wouldn't it charge since it's listed for m6500? is it a typo? i thought that 45watt wont charge it as well since the workstation would require 210 watts.

 

No, you are correct, they are the worst .
but if you cancel,do you have a better computer to buy?

 

Gratz.
pls share some info once you get it (some benchmarks ).

 

Not really, I'm currently using a loaner Latitude E6400 so I'm not really in a rush (I just think we should have been told the ram shortage may delay our orders). I wonder if I could change sales reps and keep my existing order. Does anyone have any experience doing this?

 

In my case I just asked to talk to her manager and then delt with her (manager) directly.

though eventually the one to close the deal with me was te original saleswomen, all details were closed before with the manager.

Hope it helps.

 

Thanks Spiralkill, I tried to contact his manager, unfortunately he's just as worthless. I'm convinced they don't work for commission.

 

Man I was laughing so hard when I read this as I know how you feel.
Hopefully things will turn out good for you.

Cheers

 

Yeah you're right, it is funny when I really think about it. Thanks for your kind words.
