The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    I know, there are many 667MHz RAM chips, but I don't know which ones will be technically and physical compatible.

    I am looking forward to seeing some good quality pictures of it to see how it looks like in real life though.

    This is gonna be my first laptop and I was really suprised to find out that my config would ship out only by August 15 even though I ordered it on July 20...:( ...... the status says Production but does it usually take so long??


    The config I finally settled for was the Vostro 1400 with the following specs:

    T7300 processor, 14.1 WSXGA+ with true life, 2 GB Ram, 120 GB HD, the NVidia 8400 graphics card, Intel a/g wireless card and the 2 year warranty (with everything else being the default options).....the net cost came upto $1146.11 ...... I'd have gone for less RAM if the coupon didnt force feed Dells RAM to me as part of the deal......but is that price significantly less than what i could get with other laptops (or other dell series) with similar configs??

    PS: Is the WSXGA+ 's improved resolution going to make any significant difference on a 14" screen??

    PPS: I opted out for the bluetooth reciever.....but you can always fit an external on on it rite??

    They don't have WSXGA+ for 14''....


    Oh and i have to tell you that for 20 bucks you might as well get an internal bluetooth...

    Why mess with usb sticks? (it's freakin 20 bucks...)

    DDR2 PC2-6400 • CL=5 • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • DDR2-800 • 1.8V
    or
    DDR2 PC2-5300 • CL=5 • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • DDR2-667 • 1.8V

    Info is from www.crucial.com. They have a system selection tool and have added the Vostro line.
