New computer

Sun Feb 10, 2008, 2:52 PM

Mood: Joy
Listening to: Eliane Elias
Reading: Orhan Pamuk - The New Life
Watching: Cloverfield

I bought a laptop two weeks ago and it has finally arrived!

It's a Dell XPS M1530 with the following configuration:
- Intel® Core 2 Duo T7250 (2MB cache/2.0GHz/800Mhz FSB)
- 2GB Shared Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM
- 256MB NVIDIA® GeForce® 8600M GT
- 160GB SATA HardDrive (5400RPM)
- Windows Vista Home Premium

It's now dual booting Vista and Ubuntu 7.10.

Ahh, the new computer. It's like going to Mardi Gras for geeks; we'd love to do it every year, but usually can only afford to 4 times a decade.

No 4MB of L2 cache for the processor? Shame on you...ah, not like it matters anyway. 2MB or more is plenty for a Core 2 Duo.

That's the same stats as my laptop. Or at least the things I worry about (RAM and hardrive)
What do you think of Vista?
