    Well at least of the Studio XPS sucks and doesn't support 8 gigs of ram I can go buy the HP version which does.

    There are a couple of ideastorm ideas for particular models. ie xps m1330, xps m1530. I have supported all these also. Mine is for ALL Dell computers to have bios written to support max ram supported by chipset. Rhodan started it and i followed suit with his upgrade. I think the more the better for Dell to emplement.
