• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Good choice?

Ok so I have configured this dell on their website, I figure I can get the price to be around $1400. I am going to be attending college in the fall (imagine this for a post idea :) ) and am looking for something that has some power but is also pretty portable. Any ideas on what to change, different company, different laptop and so on would be great thanks.

I am looking to keep it under 1500 at the most.

Dell 8600
Intel® Pentium®M Processor 745 (1.8GHz),15.4in WSXGA+
256MB DDR SDRAM 1 Dimm (I will upgrade from crucial for alot cheaper $)
128MB DDR ATI's MOBILITY® RADEON™ 9600 PROTURBO
24X CD-RW/DVD Combo Drive
60GB Ultra ATA Hard Drive
Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200 Internal Wireless (802.11 b/g, 54Mbps)

Comes with 2 year ext. warrenty with complete care(opps warrenty as I call it)

thanks again,
Craig
 
Everyone I know with an 8600 hates it because they can't bring them anywhere. They just sit on there desks while other people are using things like d400's or d600's in lectures and at the library.
