Im very tempted to go for a Dell Studio 15, can any users offer any thoughts and advice.

Im unsure as to the actuall differences between the processor options in real life.

  1. Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor P8700 (2.53Ghz, 3MB, 1066MHz)
  2. Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor P7450 (2.13Ghz, 3MB, 1066MHz)
  3. Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T9600 (2.8 GHz, 1066 MHz FSB, 6 MB L2 Cache)
  4. Intel® Pentium® Dual-Core Processor T4300 (2.1GHz, 800MHz, 1MB cache)
  5. Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T6600 (2.2GHz, 800MHz, 2MB)

I cant say the laptop would be used for any real intensive work but I want a snappy laptop running win 7 64bit.

Then theres the WiFi whats the difference if there all 802.11n
  1. Dell Wireless 1510 Half Mini Card (802.11n)
  2. Intel WiFi Link 5300 Half Mini Card (802.11 a/g/n) (Centrino)
  3. Intel WiFi Link 5100 (802.11 a/b/g/n 1X2) 1/2 MiniCard

Finally the memory I realise its only DDR2 800Mhz but with 4gb, 6gb & 8gb variants. Will the 6gb actually get fully used im thinking 4gb will be more than adequate.
 
Bee's im not sure where you get your information but you totally wrong regarding the DDR, and also regarding the WiFi card too as there are some features supported by the intell 5300 chipset that i cannot find listed against the 5100

Btw whats VT?
