Hello ppl,

what about temperature, battery time, 3DMark2006?

 

Just placed this M4500-order to be delivered Apr 22, 2010

- i7-620M
- 4GB 2x2GB DDR3-1066
- 256GB Solid State Drive
- Full High Definition (1920X1080) AntiGlare WLED LCD Panel
- Quadro FX 880M
- DVD+/-RW
- Win7 Ultimate 64-bit
- 9-Cell Battery
- EMEA Dell Wireless 1520
- Dell Wireless 375 Bluetooth
- Windows Live
- Advanced E-Port Replicator with 130W AC
- 3yr Basic Warranty + Next Business Day On-Site Service
- 3Yr CompleteCare Accidental Damage Cover

Currently I would not really benefit a lot from quad core so I decided to go for the solid state drive instead (as money was an issue...)

$2,900 + sales tax (3,600 including Danish sales tax)
I think I did pretty good knowing the fact that I order from Denmark and got some nice discount on mixed accessories

 

Ok fellas, just delivered. Unboxed it. Nice machine. Feels very solid as I expected. I didn't expect the battery to extend off the back (9 cell) but that was just my expectation which wasn't founded in any fact.

I am formatting now and doing a fresh install of windows 7. Before I started though I did the experience index. Came back as a 5.3 because of the video card (1800M).

 

Will try and post more shortly but let me know if you have any questions, I can try...

 

Looks I can join the M4500 club too just need to know the secret hand shake. I placed the order yesterday and showing a ship date of 05/04/2010.
