    Thoughts on the Dell Venue 11?

    Really happy so far with a Venue 11 pro 5130 here, coming from an Asus Transformer Prime TF201. Got so used to Android that I forget the capabilities of the Venue 11. I very seldom pick up the TF201 anymore.

    My current laptop is an older 17in gateway FX 7811 with a16x10 panel at 1920x1200 and I have to scale everything up to 125%, that is why I am wondering about those type of resolutions on a 10in screen.

    Possibly Best Tablet Deal

    I could kick myself in the butt if my foot would reach as I had one in my cart at the Microsoft store for the 299 + tax = 320, but was at work at the time and did want to use the open network so waited till I got home and boom out of stock. They went fast, out of stock in less than 8hrs. Have...

    Very excited about Surface Pro 2

    The LED only lights when the battery is low, or when the dpi is changed, and initial connection. It does not stay on all the time. Blue in color. Now my mx900 on the other hand has an annoyingly bright red LED that flashes when the battery is low. Also wanted to add that the scroll wheel...

    My laptop pretty just is not working anymore.

    As others have mentioned it could possibly be a thermal/throttling issue, so it might be a good time to do a good through cleaning if your machine has not had one over the course of it's 3 yrs. There are 2 seperate heatsinks / fans in the 7805. One for the CPU / NB and another for the GPU. The...

    Just got an Old Laptop, quistions??

    Looks like 512mb of ram is built onto the MB under the keyboard, non replaceable. According to Toshiba spec you are limited to 1.5gb. Prescott 533FSB processor, if you already have a 3.3 (aka 538) the fastest I'm seeing is a 3.46 (aka 552) not worth an upgrade...

    looking at this laptop what do you think

    nice machines but getting a little oudated. 500 would be more than I would want to pay 350 maybe. I have one of the 7811 which I paid 700 for new in a sealed box from BB approx 2 years ago. It has been a great machine. Your weak link will always be the 8800 gpu, as the cpu, and HD's are...

    If I remember correctly. You will have to teardown to get at it. For a quick glimpse as to where it is take the bottom cover off and shine a light to the right of the gpu and you will see the battery, encased in black. The pic only shows the connector and wires, not the battery itself...

    Why did my laptop come with Intel Matrix Storage Management (IMSM) Installed?

    The P7811fx(can house 2 HD's) came with it and it was very useful in being able to convert my existing single HD to RAID 0.
