Thought so.  So its got a silent 'c' in it.

Thanks. Just umm, you know, carry on as you were and what not.


Fuck sake, why I am still limited to just 10 karma's per day.  Ive been here for 6 years (minus one week) and yet still I dont have my own special powers.

Yeah, I have a 4 year old Laptop that's well on it's way out, and never bothered upgrading the operating system and am not about to now. I was just curious to see if it was even possible to extend the life of this laptop.

32 bit here
32 bit will be able to address 4GB of memory in total - that includes any system memory, like cache and graphics card memory, so in reality it's more like 3.5GB. I'd suggest to "extend the life" of the laptop would be to max it out to 4GB, wipe Vista, install Windows 7 64 Bit, clean out the fans (and I mean dismantling it and getting rid of every bit of fluff). You could, if you wanted to, reseat the CPU cooler with some new thermal paste, but that's a bit of a stretch. Worth it though.

Dell XPS 15z is a sexy machine. Looks of a macbook pro (a total rip-off of one, really), without the unbearable apple software. Want.

EDIT- Thanks for the advice, Finray. I have 4GB right now, and I think I can 'acquire' a copy of Windows 7 to hopefully boost performance a little. Cleaning out the fans and such would be a task, but if I get desperate I'll go for it.

that looks like a very shit laptop

tiny keyboard made smaller by speakers at the sides, guaranteed the trackpad will be 100x shitter than the Apple one (Apple trackpad is fucking glorious), and will be plasticy made and shit. So not really.

I wont bore you with silly questions as Im sure you wanna go back to ya RAM discussions, 32 v 64 (bit unfair if you ask me but what do I know) but is it called Connecticut because the town / city was built on an axis of two major highways wether that be road or rail.

I have a thing about google or wiki.  Id rather ask someone in the know and read their thoughts on it.

I wish that guy in your link would say it a bit slower, its like his life depends on it.  He's done his job half way through the time bar thing. 0.5 seconds I think

nah wyoming has people from there. CT is just an amalgamation of people from around the country, much like the DC area (except a lot of the black people)

I think they used the same shitty aluminum on the new XPSs as they did with mine. Not as a nice as a mac, no, but it's the best looking thing with windows on it. Don't say Lenovo.
