Yeah! Finally! After a long long decision process I ordered my new notebook which will also be a replacement for my actual workstation.
During that process I took several criteria in view, which had to be held:
Pentium M with Centrino (for WiFi and battery life)
1 GB RAM (for the performance...)
60 GB HD
Cool design (as Lukas once stated on the creative process in coding)
I took several models into further evaluation and afterwards decided for a whole other model! ;)
So, here is what I ordered today at Dell:
Dell 8600c Premium-Class
Mobile Intel® Pentium® 4 Prozessoren-M with 400 MHz FSB
2x USB 2.0, 1x Firewire (1394)
Intel® Pentium® M Prozessor 755, 2,00 GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 400 MHz FSB
15,4" UltraSharp WXGA Display (1280 x 800)
1024 MB DDR-SDRAM, 333 MHz (2x 512 MB)
64 MB nVidia GeForce FX Go 5200 Video Controller
60 GB EIDE ATA-100 Festplatte
4x DVD+RW / 16x CD-RW writer
Internal Bluetooth module
Intel Pro 2200 Wireless LAN (802.11b/g)
Inspiron Port Replikator
Lithium Ionen Akku with 48 Wh (paralell usage with normal akku)
There is several software included, which I hope to get rid of by maybe selling it...
Microsoft® Windows® XP Home
Microsoft® Works 7.0
So, if anyone is interessted... ;)
I really looking forward to it. The Dell website says, that shipping is latest done in 12 long long days....
