    So I have my brand new m11x-r2 that i got the other day however when I tried downloading synaptics scrybe it said I had an incompatible trackpad. Right now with current dell drivers I can't find the option to turn on two finger scrolling. All I could find is pinch zooming. Does anybody have an idea on how to get scrybe to install or where two finger scrolling is on normal dell drivers?

    nvm! i got it to work. You have to keep your old drivers installed because last time I tried installing it I had deleted the old drivers first.

    Hey Titan, this is off-topic, but how does the m11x compare to the envy 15?

    Well i'm selling my Envy 15 because the battery life sucks. However the performance is alot better and obviously the screen is. Other than that they are both good computers. I like the m11x is alot though. How is the 500GB Momentus XT? Is it worth the upgrade and how is the battery life after installing it?

    The XT is great. Never had an SSD, so can't compare but I can reboot my system anywhere from 45-60 seconds. Battery life is still 5 hours. My system feels very snappy.
