Just ordered a 9100 hope it's not a lemon

After shopping for the last month, I finally ordered a 9100 yesterday.

80 g hd

1g ram

128 video

wireless abg

bluetooth

dvd burner

only got the 1 year warranty, figured if its going to crash should do so in first year.

Thanks for all the messages on the 9100, its folks like you that help people like me get the real scoop on the products, not what a company wants you to hear, but people that are out there using the product.

 

The one thing I don't like is tech support in India.

    Be positive! Dell makes great computers and I think you will be extremely satisfied.

    The only qualms about the 9100 is the weight and how hot the unit gets underneath (which can make having it on your lap damned uncomfortable) and thats with a Northwood chip (how the Prescott cpu's run a lot hotter)

    Very nice laptop, though there are better spec laptops out there now (acer).

    Lets hope you dont get a lemon.

    DVD burning is (officially) DVD+R's. but a search of these forums shows people "upgrading" their Nec 5100's to support -R's. (No doubt Dell dont like this, but I have yet to see them make a statement on it).
