Okay, So I just purchased one of these bad boys. I was wandering down the threads here and maybe figured out that with NVidia's MXM form factor, I could replace the 8400M GS with the 8600M GS. I might wonder about the "memory interface" being only 64-bits for the 8400M GS and 128-bits for the...

I am assisting a client in purchasing a new PC. Since this person is not a PC geek, I think a ready made Dell would be a good deal. The requirements are that it be able to run the normal day to day MS office programs, photo manipulation and printing, and play games like The Sims. They would...
