    Well my Dell Studio arrived today. This is what I got

    Jet Black Case
    Intel Core 2 @ 2.1GHZ
    3GB DDR2 Ram
    320GB HD
    17" 1920x1200 Screen 'Incredible'
    256MB ATI Graphics
    Backlit keyboard
    Webcam built in

    So far the machine has been great. First thing I did is popped in my Vista Ultimate x64 dvd and do a erase and install. I then installed some of the drivers off the dell dvd and downloaded others online. My problem is I am missing two drivers in device manager. One is my ethernet... Luckily I use wifi but still wanna fix this. Second driver says unkown device. Everything else works great. I'm also really liking the machine. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    Ryan
