And the first few shipments are heading out to the first pre-orderly of us. Mine may still make it during spring break YET!

YEAH!

More good news! Turns out the laptop ships stock with 1066 RAM, but due to shortages they are sending them out with 1333!

WOOT!

irrelevant with nehalem, the memory controller is built into the CPU. The bClock is *just* a clock, rather than a bus.

Indeed, they are cramming more and more into these CPU's!

Interestingly enough, it seems ATI teh suxorz at releasing reliable and timely drivers! Fortunately I think we have the beta drivers floating around somewhere!

There's an edit button, if I'm not mistaken. Or are you just padding your count?

The way I see it, is if the post has sat there for a few days with no replies, and I have a totally new concept to cover, that it deserves a new post.

Unlike what you guys may think, I have a very systematic system in place for articulate and planned spamming.

Ok not always so articulate but you understand!

There is such an extreme shortage of these laptops! People are canceling their orders from my reseller by the dozens as other companies get them in stock. Me being that old fashioned loyal type am waiting patiently. Should we take bets on whether it arrives before the LAN?

If it ships Monday of my California break I have made arrangements to have it shipped elsewhere
