Please replace all faulty Nvidia Laptop GPUs.
Instead of releasing half baked Bios update to constantly run our laptop funs and drain batter power, please own up to your mistakes and replace these faulty Laptop GPUs!

Please make Ubuntu XPS Notebook cheaper than XPS Vista Notebook

Linux, Operating Systems, XPS products submitted by dki May 26

Hi,
I have tested the price of the default Vista-Notebook XPS M1330 (in Germany) and the Ubuntuversion with the same Configuration. The result was amazing :(:

Vistaversion: 909,00 €
Linuxversion: 923,44 €

Is Vista cheaper than Ubuntu?? I can not imagine.

So my wish: Make Ubuntu-Laptops competitive! 23 Comments »

Every Nvidia Graphics Card With G84 or G86 Chipset Is Ready to Die

These chips are in XPS M1330 and XPS M1330n laptops and probably a few other models too. If my graphics card dies will Dell replace it? What is Dell doing about this? Is Dell offering an alternative? 18 Comments »

More OS Choices on the XPS Line!

Operating Systems, Sales Strategies, XPS products submitted by hoodedthing 12/30/07

Alright, the XPS laptop line is pretty good, but the OS choices are awfully limited. As a matter of fact, it's usually a choice between Vista or Vista Ultimate. Putting Linux, no-OS, and XP choices on all computers isn't a new subject, but I'm talking about the XPS line, because it seems to have been left out of the "partially implemented" part of those ideas.

The m1330 and the m1530 are both VISTA ONLY. I don't know about everyone else, but Vista pretty much sucks, and I would definitely re-platform any XPS I bought rather than deal with it. Can't we have a choice of XP, no OS, or Linux? Dell is really strangling these great computers by making Vista their mandatory OS.

The m1710 and m1730 do give you the choice of XP, but those laptops start at $2300. Why would you only offer XP on your high-end systems? It's not a new expensive product, it's still in demand, it's not anything inconvenient for Dell, so let's just stick it back in the pre-installion options.

So, they're great laptops, we want more OS choices because it's easy for us if we get the OS we want pre-installed, or at least don't have to wipe and then install one ourselves. I don't know how the legal whoop-dee-doo works with XP as opposed to Vista, but I know that a blank or Linux hard drive is free, and there's no excuse for not offering those. 14 Comments »

Make XP/Linux drivers available for all model even if only Vista is pre-installed

Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Linux, Operating Systems submitted by vineets001 09/24/07 **REVIEWED**

There are good hardware models coming out. And only Vista is pre-install option. If people want to wipe off Vista and install XP or Linux, let them do that. Make a commitment to have the drivers available.


We're working on having drivers for the hardware we ship more widely available. Click here to learn more from john_h.
