    Everyone calm down please.

    If ccvortex signed a NDA, he's not supposed to spill the beans and that's that. If spilling the beans can affect his business' relationship with Dell, he has every reason not to.

    For the record, all mods here are volunteers and we have no particular reason to rat out anyone to Dell or any reseller, OEM or whatever. There are however Dell reps who browse this forum, so they might still see it.

    Nice try, my company has a premium level of partnership with Dell (we annually buy a mil worth of hardware from them). I already have the latest info but it's incomplete, there are only two screen choices at the moment. Will have to wait till Oct, if not longer :(

    Just want to know if the new M6800 will the IPS RGB screen.
    I've been hesitating for months to decide to wait for M6800 or just go with M6700.
    If the new M6800 don't have IPS RGB screen I'll buy a M6700.
    Anyone can tell me is now a good time to buy a M6700?
    And what's the reasonable price for a M6700 with i7 processor and IPS RGB screen? (since the IPS RGB screen can't be selected on dell.com, I guess I'll go with refurnished instead)

    If that's true, which I doubt, then you already know when they are adding the M6800 to the website, which you don't seem to know.

    If you really have the level of partnership with DELL you claim to then tell me what the video card options for the M6800 are going to be?
    It's a simple question you should immediately know the answer to.

    After you fail, I'll let you know what the real answer is.

    Apologizes Tijo for continuing this, but when someone calls me a liar they better be able to back it up.


    No Haswell Precisions will have IPS screens.

    For a good refurb PMW with IPS/K3000/1 TB or 256SSD you're looking at around 2400-2700. PM me and I'll let you know a decent reseller of refurb PMW's.

    Dell asks for too much information to set up a fake company like Federal Tax ID number.

    Wow this is like the games we played as a child - "I know something and I am not going to tell you". I have to wonder about the professionalism of signing an NDA and then telling the world on a forum that they have signed an NDA. What's the motivation for that? What does one hope to gain from that, how is that productive for anyone?

    Just because it's legal to tell people about it doesn't mean it's right to. Let's move on.

    They do not require a federal tax ID number. maybe you called HP on accident.
