Dell XPS M1330 Laptop

I ordered a new (company) laptop a while ago and even though I was a bit skeptic I went for a Dell XPS. A colleague had the big brother and was very pleased with it.

I went for the small one, the 1330. I mostly hook it up to a big external screen so I didn't care much for the screen size. And it suits me just fine when I'm in my hotel room and want to watch a movie, play a nifty race game or want to work a bit more. It's definitely not enough for every day work, but I knew that up front. And I admit being spoiled with my other setup: http://www.flickr.com/photos/dynom/2434179780/sizes/o/

For the geeks amongst us, some specs:

• 13,3" WXGA screen (1280x800)
• Intel Core 2 Duo CPU 2,6Ghz (800Mhz FSB, 6MB L2 cache)
• 4Gb Ram (667Mhz, DDR2 SDRAM)
• 200Gb HDD (7200rpm and Free Fall Sensor)
• 8xDVD+/-RW Slot-load drive
• 9-cell 95WHr Li-Ion battery (standard is 60WHr)
• 128MB Nvidia GeForce 8400M GS
• Dell TrueMobile 355 bluetooth module
• Intel Next-Gen Wireless-N wifi card.
• Biometric Fingerprint Reader

The Fingerprint reader is awesome, it saves a lot of password typing. But you do have to configure and fine-tune it a bit. And you need to have pretty clean fingers.. But that's easy with my line of work
