    Here's the Manual for the E-Port Plus (which has the legacy ports and Dual DVI and Dual DP). http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/acc/eapr/
    Here's the standard E-Port Manual (smaller, with only one each of DVI and DP) http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/acc/espr

    Here's the page with all the Dell docs for future reference.

    Welcome Katze,thanks for using this thread instead of starting yet another one.....I hope you like the M4400 should you order....its a nice notebook:)



    David,can you tell me if a coolslice will be available for the 6500/M4400 ?

    Also,can you confirm the second hard drive for these models,is in fact,a 1.8" hard drive enclosure ?

    @ David
    Thanks for the advice.

    So what you are saying is: "Euro 2 Advanced Port Replicator with 130W AC Adaptor No Stand“ is in fact “E-Port Plus”?!

    That seems absolute logical to me, but I was wondering why Dell couldn´t just call the dockingstation “ E-Port Plus” in the M4400 Configuration Menu, instead of confusing me by calling it different names.:confused:
    It would also be nice, if productcodes would be searchable.
    Just my 2 cent.

    @ Weegie
    Your reviews on your M4400 had an big influence, on the process of deciding what Notebook would suite my need best. So thanks again.

    @danao
    and they should!!

    @electrictool
    Well mine was still in production yesterday and shipped today so...what's in a day? I'm just reeeeelly glad it's not the 1 1/2 as they said....probably just being on the safe side there

    Still i think it's pretty impressive if it arives today. That would make it 5 working days from order to delivery for a product that has to be built. An off-the-shelve laptop is only 2 days less usually.

    It's the same thing, i.e. Plus and Advanced.

    Yes, there will be a Cool Slice for the E6500 and M4400.

    Yes, the optional HDD in the Optical bay is a 1.8".

    Your welcome:)

    Nice one....look forward to reading your comments,which screen did you go with?

    Thanks David,will order a coolslice when available.....surprising,is the nicest way I can comment on the use of a 1.8" hard drive module though.
