Dell's Gaming Monster

Posted by michael on from the luggables dept.

Carpoolio writes "TechTV has a good first look at the new Dell Inspiron XPS -- the company's first foray into portable gaming systems. The notebook -- a beast at 9 pounds -- puts the company squarely against the likes of Alienware. The price tag is steep, too, at $3,350. Are you buying?"

    The bold was of course just what i thought of the issue before the mods pulled the test. Never submitted it cause the story went away before i could post to it.

  3. Samsung 24" + ATI = 1920x1200 under Linux by FreeUser · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    WUXGA+ screen, which is 1920x1200 pixels.

    What I want to know is, why is it you can buy a laptop with that flat panel installed, but you can't buy an LCD monitor for your desktop PC that can do that?

    Actually, you can, for about $2500. My 24" Samsung does 1920x1200 and works beautifully under Linux with my ATI Radeon 9100, using the xfree DRI drivers.
