    @darkhan:
    Which msata ssd do you also have? How are you happy with performance?
    Would you say that 80Gb would also suffice?
    Thanks!

    I have the Samsung 820 128GB msata and I just use it for work folders and backups.
    The 80GB should be fine depends on your needs? Now that I have 512 for my main drive I really don't even need the 128 and may place it for sale on here?

    Funny, since when is the M4600 available with a touch-screen? Just checked Dell out of boredom and found the M4600 to be available with a multitouch display....
    No word of an IPS M6600 at Dell Austria *yet* :) waiting!

    Do you know if the 830 series supports hardware based full drive encryption? I can't seem to find the answer anywhere... I know the drive has a secure erase option which would lead me to believe it does. Maybe its an option in the Samsung Magician software.

    Yes but don't get it. It's 1366x768. This means you can't fit much onscreen (same resolution as 12-inch laptops) and bad image quality.

    Just taken delivery of one........great processor/graphics etc. Had to send the first one back because the case wasn't properly assembled. Now discover that despite offering blue ray disc playing, they are shipping these things with mono phono jacks.......unbelievable at this price point!! Totally unadvertised etc

    Very poor
