    if you get your money easily, why not top it up?
    I personally think T9600 is good enough, but you lose the bragging right.

    If you want to look at upgrading later, Intel is releasing a few more chips this spring. Some are faster and some better with power mangagement. A spring/summer upgrade could be a great plan.

    IIRC, updating the video driver will remove the white pixel.

    It was the OSD driver/software. Alienware released v2 to fix it, and it did. :)
