    When I went out to purchase a backpack I decided to look at backpacks at Fry's (They have nearly a whole Aisle dedicated to just backpack, and another aisle dedicated to laptop bags (messenger bag~ style).
    I took the three best out of: Mobile Edge, Swissgear, Targus, Everki (several in stock), Belkin, Caselogic, and Sumdex~..
    The three best for my M6500 were: 1 Swissgear, Everki Beacon, and Mobile Edge Scanfast 2.0 17" Backpack.

    Here is what I had to say about them.

    I just got another replacement which is also refurbished in worse condition than my original. It gives me BSOD every now and then so I just swapped the cpu and mobo from my old machine and it's working again. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to swap parts so I guess the best way is to call them and ask?

    o_O BSOD with original stuff shipped from Dell? As long as you accidentally cut any wires or damage anything it shouldn't. Though you may have to swap it out to RMA it to Dell.

    I think M7820 runs much cooler so they probably thought cooper was not needed. :)


    Btw, I just checked my hardware info and totally freaked out. My screen is not Samsung RGB. It is an LG panel(LP171WU5 TL(A4)) which I think is not as good as the newer Samsung. :mad: Not sure if this is even RGB LED. Can anyone tell me the part number for the Samsung RGB screen?

    Will any of the new Sandy Bridge processors operate in a M6500?

    A direct swap?

    Any comments?

    Regards
