The base model is more $ than the laptop I bought yesterday (with same CPU and more memory). Actually, I measured the power of my (old) laptop and desktop-- at idle the laptop is 20W and desktop 125W (1W vs 6W off). People don't realize how dramatic the electric use is on laptops. - Carl Hage Wed, 30 Jul 2008 09:49:17 +0100 http://www.ecogeek.org/computing-and-gadgets/1937#comment-17101 I wish Dell did not force you to include some options. I would rather leave off the optical drive and dump Vista in favor of Linux. That would bring the price down to where I might consider it. - Gordon Wed, 30 Jul 2008 08:34:34 +0100 http://www.ecogeek.org/computing-and-gadgets/1937#comment-17078 Now load up a modern linux distro on this puppy, and it will use less system resources. - bobthebuilder Tue, 29 Jul 2008 21:18:57 +0100 http://www.ecogeek.org/computing-and-gadgets/1937#comment-17062 Now the big question is - can it run OS X??? - manu Tue, 29 Jul 2008 17:07:13 +0100 http://www.ecogeek.org/computing-and-gadgets/1937#comment-17054 While the power efficiency is laudable, I believe this is a bad idea. I may be in the minority, but I prefer to fix and upgrade machines, reusing old parts as I can. With this machine, if something goes wrong, I would have to send it back to dell or buy a new one. There does not appear to be a way to perform upgrades on the machine, either. This will only contribute to land fill waste as people will toss it in a few years instead of upgrading it. Oh, and the TV tuners offered are all USB. No big deal there. A computer I built in 2000 had a PCI internal tuner and I'm still running that machine today, processor case and all. - EV Tue, 29 Jul 2008 14:53:18 +0100 http://www.ecogeek.org/computing-and-gadgets/1937#comment-17051 I think this is a great step in the right direction for the computer industry. Specs and configuration for this PC are not bad either.. Though $130 just to get a Bamboo case is crazy and they should offer a upgraded graphics card if you want this to be a mid-higher end desktop (ie able to truly handle Vista). - Tenzin Tue, 29 Jul 2008 14:16:20 +0100
