Hello
Im thinking of getting a new dell for gaming. If I separately buy a fancy
video card, will they still fit in AGP slot on new dells bypassing the
onboard video? MY XPS 400 from 1997 has had all the upgrades Im going to
give it and it might be time for a new gamer.
Thanks

Will Dell Come Out with Tablet PC soon? by
Dean C. Harris
It seems odd Dell hasn't made a nice Tablet PC yet.
I am aware they are a niche system, but there are a good number into
them and buy new when something nice comes out.
Anything in the rumor mill about a Dell Tablet?
TIA
