    I'm seeing conflicting info on Dell's site, one page (the tech specs in the shopping card) claims it has an "Integrated 10/100 Network Card," while another indicates "10/100/1000 LAN (RJ45)" ... anyone know the truth of it, does the XPS 16 have Gb ethernet?

    Yeah they do, as do most large corporations. I was told I was going to get a 90watt or could grab an extra 90watt ac adapter when in fact I have a 130watt.
