>CNET First Look: Dell Inspiron Duo

> REVIEW FROM CNET: Unlike traditional convertible tablets, which have screens that rotate 180 degrees horizontally, the Inspiron Duo screen flips 180 degrees vertically–hinged in the middle of the lid. When the screen is flipped over and the lid closed, the system launches a touch-friendly interface for interacting with photos, videos, and music (and returns to the basic Windows desktop when the transformation is reversed). The flipping motion worked well on our demo unit, although the hinge felt a little loose. You have to take care to turn the screen only in the correct direction, essentially pushing the top of the screen back through the lid. Also, the screen occasionally collided with the keyboard with an audible thunk if we weren’t careful about opening the laptop body wide enough for proper clearance. The touch interface has large, finger-friendly icons for photos, video, e-books, a paint program, and more. But the response time when launching tablet-based apps was painfully slow. Thanks to a Broadcom HD chip, video playback was smooth after the first few jittery seconds, but the photo gallery program’s pinch-to-zoom function was sluggish. The interfaces for the different parts of this media hub, however, are pleasingly clean and simple. With zippier hardware it could be a solid multimedia product, and the built-in speakers were surprisingly loud–good enough, at least, for movie playback to a small audience. But even better-sounding was the optional JBL speaker …

>OwnagePranks – Dell Tech Support: Baby fuckin’ a unicorn

> Ownage calls Dell technical support once again claiming he’s seeing some fucked up shit on his screen. Due to Stickam lagging, the audio starts a few seconds after the actual call starts and also the audio is choppy in some places. I edited the audio to take out the worst of the lag but there still is some there.

>REVIEW: Dell Studio 14z Notebook

> www.digitalhomethoughts.com Here it is, the “mega review" of this laptop. Please ignore the fact that the video says “UNBOXING" – I neglected to edit that to say REVIEW. This video is quite long because I go into a lot of detail about battery tests, performance benchmarks, and the pros and cons of this notebook. I hope everyone enjoys the level of detail! This notebook, shown here in ruby red, is a little different that most notebooks in that it lacks a CD drive – but it’s no netbook! It has a 14 inch, 16:9 aspect ratio screen running at 1600 x 900 resolution, which is Dell’s 900p resolution option (an upgrade). The standard resolution is 720p, which is 1280 x 720. Powering it all is an Intel Core 2 Duo: the P8600, running at 2.4 Ghz, with 3 MB of L2 cache. 3 GB of DDR3 RAM at 1066mhz provides the memory, and storage is handled by a 320 GB, 7200 RPM hard drive. The graphics processor is an NVIDIA GeForce 9400G-M, and the on-board 802.11 b/g/n WiFI is an Intel 1515 card. It also has Bluetooth 2.1, and an optional ExpressCard 8-in-1 memory card adaptor that arrived damaged as you’ll see in the video. The keyboard is back-lit, which is an add-on option, and it’s running Windows Vista 64-bit. Powering it all is a 6-cell, 54 WHr battery. I paid $1306 CAD for this configuration from Dell Canada as of May 2009, but Dell’s prices change daily to always check their Web site for the most accurate pricing information.

>Dell Precision M6400 Tech Support Nightmare

> See the amazing $6000 Dell Precision M6400 that locks up, breaks or otherwise does not allow you to work. I have two of these and they both do the same exact thing .. This movie was taken just after a Dell technical support guy replaced everything in the machine. Does not matter if it is XP XP64 VISTA VISTA64. This one was 40 days old and never even one day allowed continual operation! Dell won’t return money and will only exchange with a refurb with no guarantee replacement won’t have same problems.
