    or X or S for that matter. I'm talking about the silver inlay letters on the top of the M1330 case. My "P" went missing a few days ago, apparently falling off, never to be seen again. So I guess I now have an X_S. Do you think Dell would send me a new one if I called?

    Otherwise happy with the laptop despite the EXCRUCIATINGLY annoying sleep mode that simply does not work with any of the NVIDIA drivers I've tried. I'm really tired of rebooting continuously b/c the sleep mode isn't working.

    Yea, give them a call. They should send you a new one. It won't hurt to ask.

    Yes, they'll replace your computer if you tell them you've lost your letters. Pretty annoying though, because you WILL lose all those letters at some point soon after receiving the machine.

    I think people have also lost letters from the Dell logo on the back of the lid... Dell's definitely not doing too great a job with this lettering business...
