    There will be no switchable graphics. Optimus or otherwise. Which sucks.

    Lame! I may just have to be patient for the T410s.

    Great, is that a COM port on the rear of the E6510. Great improvement.

    That is a VGA port. built-in COM/Parallel ports are no longer on built-in laptops.

    Yeah. It has to be in the Intel chipset spec for it to possibly be there, doesn't it?

    If you need a serial port then there's one on the Dell E-port or, if you don't want the full E-port then there's a smaller legacy port adaptor.

    There are also USB to Serial and USB to Parallel adapters which are very economical.

    That is what I use. Works great in Putty and on all Cisco router/ switches, 3Com, HP switches, various firewalls, etc. Had mine for 5 years and still works fine.

    When the VGA has been brought from the side to the back, not clear what they have done with the original space. Any fill up on the left side?
