In Dell have put on thinking cap, but backwards. The manufacturer of laptops has gone further in the quest for “Workstation” perfect, and improved their laptops Precision M6600 with a feature that more than a breath away: the option to take it home with over 1TB of SSD storage, said shortly. SSDs are already known by all fans of the tech world because they offer without any noise or moving parts, performance up to 10 times higher than the best current hard drives, with sustained rates up to 500 Megabytes per second. The problem is that the production of these memories is still very expensive, and that is why we often see them in formats “humble” 60, 120 or 240GB, which fall short of the up 3Terabytes you can cram into a traditional disk.

However, although the price is still exorbitant, there are higher capacity drives, and these are the ones that Dell has taken to its new Precision M6600, designed for professional use laptops that stand out for their great strength and an extraordinary hardware. The new models, plus the option to mount incubation GPUs Quadro 5010M Nvidia with 4GB of dedicated memory, can be configured with up to two 512GB SSD 2.5-inch, and a third unit Mini-Card format – such as those used Macbook Air – up to 128GB, reaching a whopping 1.1 set Terabytes of capacity with higher performance.

Of course, not everything is positive, as I said, the prices of these storage devices is not exactly accessible, and if we speak of a computer system builder gets worse. One of these discs SSD 512GB, configured as a master unit in a new Dell Precision M6600, costs a whopping U.S. $ 1120 , while the secondary unit to be U.S. $ 1350. The third and tiny Mini-Card drive can be added by adding another $ 480 price. If we get our hands on one of these teams with more than 1TB of SSD capacity, we will spend a total of U.S. $ 2950 without the team’s base price. Apart from solid disks and drives, this new Dell Precision screen incorporates a 17.3-inch, Intel Core i7 i5, up to 16GB of DDR3-1600MHz, a business card M8900 AMD FirePro and a 9-cell battery, and can be purchased from $ 2055.

I understand the need for performance in a machine of this nature, being designed for professional use, but who needs to 1TB of SSD storage? A hybrid system with a solid disk 128 or 256GB primary and secondary disk 1TB traditional combination seems more fully, and provide any type of user exceptional performance without spending more on storage in the hardware of the computer.

Ending the summer I teach a concept dubbed Duo Dell Inspiron, and besides the information that the American firm presented at the Intel Developer Forum, which accompanied by images with which we could interpret that we faced a mix of portable and removable tablet.

In today Dell has posted a video on his YouTube account that lets us know a lot better this netbook convertible. We can see out of the netbook screen is completely autonomous, making it a tablet: Continue Reading

Those seeking a laptop powerful is sure to have his eye on the Dell Precision M6500, a team focused on professionals, which could be configured with Intel Core i7-920XM Extreme quad-core, up to 16 GB of RAM to 1600 MHz or cards ATI FirePro graphics as the M7740 and Nvidia 3800m QuadroFX.

A laptop with 17-inch LED display that can still more, as the company announced that this little beast will have in its configuration options with the ability to add USB 3.0 to its characteristics, becoming the first Dell notebook to do .

Other highlights also will be a 3.2 megapixel webcam, a choice of less powerful processors dual core, Intel Core i5 and the option to incorporate a 64GB SSD MiniCard Dell M6500 to becoming the first to offer up to three hard drives .

In principle the other features, configuration options and design will not change and was set late February as the date the updated models will be available.

No doubt a beast laptop, at a price suitable for all budgets, because although no prices have been announced to date, if we reference the previous base model with Core i7, which was around $ 2700.

Late last year we had occasion to know the Dell Vostro V13, a laptop and drink of the design lines that characterized the elitist Dell Adamo, getting create a very slim and elegant but with a price for everyone.

The portable design that occupies our lines, Dell’s Latitude 13, is almost similar to the aforementioned Vostro, but this time the teams will be part of Latitude business oriented. They emphasize its 1.65 inches thick, and weighing 1.6 kg.

Thel Dell Latitude 13 is clearly one of the thinnest notebooks in its size, and has a 13-inch screen. Vostro It differs mainly in the decoration of the team and in the preinstalled software oriented businesses, such as a Citrix client virtualization laptop.

To achieve such small dimensions, the team has no internal optical drive, so if you need a Dell offers as an option Blu-ray external drive. It is also present as an option within the team to integrate a module to allow 3G connectivity.

All other settings, especially processors, are unknown, but it seems logical that the final price is not too far from the great $ 450 item that has the Dell Vostro V13. It will be available on Dell’s website in a couple of weeks.

Dell has updated its Inspiron 15 notebooks this week, a veteran classical portable. It has done a big way, using some of the latest technologies available.

More interesting to the general public, the new Dell Inspiron 15 Intel Core used i3 and i5 in different versions, making it possible your custom settings. The chart is available the default (use the integrated Intel GPU in the processor itself) or go with a dedicated ATi 4330. What we do we will be using DDR3 RAM and 15-inch screen and 1366 x 768 pixels. Is lacking the ability to switch between the integrated GPU and dedicated, so that the user can choose according to your needs. It would be ideal to maximize the latest models of Intel processors, but unfortunately I fear they will be very few teams that integrate this functionality.

From the aesthetic point of view, noted that several colors can be chosen, but that yes, we will have to pay 40 euros more. For now the custom design, called Design Studio Dell are not available for our country.

These new Dell Inspiron 15 and can be purchased in Spain for a starting price of 499 euros, including Core i3-330M, 3 GB of memory and integrated Intel GPU on the CPU. Dell also has updated its Inspiron 17 with the main difference to use a larger screen but also with a larger price, starting at 784 euros. And indeed, in Latin America announce an Inspiron 14 with similar specifications as we have discussed here, but this is not available in Spain.

Following the announcement of the new Intel Atom, it clearly did not take too long for manufacturers to see how officers did their ultraportable equipped with them. The Dell Inspiron Mini 10 is the first one.

This new version of this range of computers includes the Intel Atom N450 1.6 GHz, which recall is the lowest power Pinetrail family. To this we add the HD Crystal Broadcom platform, which enables the playback of video in high resolution.

For this, the 10.1-inch screen lets you choose between resolutions of 1024 x 600 pixels and 1366 × 768 pixels, the latter being suitable for HD content. We remain, yes, the same 1GB of RAM, hard disk while we can choose between 160 GB and 250 GB.

As regards consumption, the Dell Inspiron Mini 10, a 6-cell battery offers a range of up to 9.5 hours, which is not bad, although the weight to be seen as the model with three cells can weigh up 1.4 kilos, depending on the chosen option.

It will go on sale in early January with a minimum price of $ 299.

Impressive specifications that comes with the Dell Precision M6500, a laptop aimed at those who need pure power but with the ability to move your computer from side to side “easily”. I put in quotes because its almost four kilos do not help much to it.

But it is understandable when you consider that inside we find an Intel Core i7 Extreme quad-core, up to 16 GB of RAM running at 1600 MHz or QuadroFX Nvidia 3800m graphics card, being the first notebook to incorporate it.

The Dell Precision M6500 comes with a 17-inch screen and can select various resolutions up to 1920 × 1200 pixels and illuminated with LEDs. We may also choose whether we want a conventional hard disk, with up to 500GB of capacity, or opt for a SSD with a maximum of 256 GB.

Another option is an optical drive Blu-ray and integrated 3G connectivity. With these specifications, we anticipate the price is quite high, but Dell is not yet on sale, so it has not made official as it will cost.
