New M6500 Discussion Thread

That was actually one of the main reasons I RMA'd that machine.
Its like a total mirror in bright light namely florescent.

 

lol ok, Sorry about that but I couldn’t resist

 

I haven’t seen this where, post a link please.

 

That's the reason why I vastly prefer matte screens.

BTW, it seems that Dell Studio 16 XPS end-to-end RGBLED is just a matte screen with a piece of glossy clear plastic over it.
Look at this thread, there are a couple of pics posted by user chrous25 (the second of them, although out of focus, is quite striking):

I'm wondering if a piece of glossy clear plastic can make the colours "brighter" and "more vibrant", as many supporters of glossy screens state!

 

I favor the looks of those screens myself (in use)....the Covet should be here this week, I'll post some photo's up also....

 

25/1 is posibble as i ordered mine on Jan 6 (2010) and suppose to get it today.

 

just got my machine today from poland. Upload some testing images for your guys. and I also have some questions:
1. I cant find the driver for Mass storage controller, have already installed the chipset and MATRIX-STORAGE-MANAGER.
2. I installed Win7 64bit and laptop has 4g ddr3 1333, however the rated of RAM is only 5.9. As I know it should be over 7.
3. How can I check the type number or manufacture info about the screen, through any software?
4. I ordered the machine without OS, I dont know which driver is for touchpad(it should has light as M6400), cant find it on website.

appreciate your answers...

 

Just incase anyone wants to know, this machine now runs perfectly with all the drivers in OSx86 as well as in linux . had some time to spare so got a retail osx disk and installed in my second HD on my m6500 .

 

I got mine few min ago but with XP 64 instead of Win 7. Installing it (Win 7 64) now, if ill find the requested drivers ill update you.

 

What was the resolution for the 3dmark06? Was it 1280 x 1024.
