So does anyone know why the Nvidia is kicking the ATI's ass? is it the build?
Sad... reallly... My girlfriend just bought a 2000 Dell that actually looks pretty nice... but has windows... Its a 15 inch that has almost everything the 17 has or close enough to meet my needs and yes the GPU is running better. Well I would think since the 15 and the 17 have the same cards in the dell.
I know it sounds like I'm comparing the two but I'm not. I'm just saying I'm a little disappointed becuase I thought the 256 vcard was going to be pretty good and be just as good as hers...
I used to have a Dell. It worked wonderfully, but I was just genuinely dissappointed in it. I used it all the time for school and stuff. (Dell Inspiron 600m). I was disheartened when I heard from others that Dell has so far refused to issue a manufacturer's defect in the motherboard (or Logic Board as Apple calls it). And the fact that there was an electrical issue in an already messed up computer (BIOS messed up a few times and the fan stopped coming on). Just added onto it. The only time I ever got viruses was when I was networked at school.
It also wouldn't be able to support Vista, and from what I've heard from some of the professors, they were saying they intended to switch to Vista and were going to require students to switch.
But when Intel came out with the new chips and stuff, I bought the Macbook Pro. I've been incredibly satisfied with it.
