    I ordered my new Dell on Saturday and it will be here on Tuesday....that totally works in to my Travel schedual. I got a Refurb (my 3rd referb from back when the referb site was a secret) It is replacing my Inspiron 9300. I am hoping for a lighter and faster experiance in Vista...

    I got it for a steal and was planning on getting a few choice upgrades as funds allow. It has a 1.66 ghz so there are pleanty of options there in the coming months and it has a 5400 RPM drive that I might go bigger and faster....

    So is there a popular place to go and get upgrades at? Processors? Hard Drives that will work?

    I am very excited about the new laptop and the weight loss....

    Yea, I thought that too....on there CPU page they have one T series the T7700. Do they just not sell the others anymore? Am I expecting to much? I was hoping for a few options...

    [Edit]Ahhhh I found a different way to sort...I guess I was only looking at the deals..

    Well I got it today.....spent the whole day blowing it away and reinstalling, transfering files and whatnot...

    All in all I am very happy. It is much quicker than my 9200.....it is running Vista very well...runs my VMware sessions way faster than the 9200. I need to go get a case and get everything ready for my first trip....I am very excited about the 4 pounds that it weights....
