    The 2630UM is the 2657. I'm pretty sure they will have the 2617 in them. It seems like the 2630/2657 were sent as review samples.

    There is no such thing as a 2630M so CPUZ is reading it wrong. Clock speed readings aren't helpful either as KitGuru shows 2.2ghz. Performance of the 2630UM in Cinebench is similar to the 2657M found in the NBC review. (1.91 and 1.92). Maybe Dell gave out 2657M R3 but axed it at the last minute for some reason after review units were given. Shame as it means performance of the R3 for users will be less then reviewed.
