Loving the new machine...

Well, over the last couple years I've been largely working from a laptop. I thought I liked it... until recently I simply needed more power.

I went ahead and did some research and found that there was an amazing deal out there that was simply too good to pass up.

The Dell Studio XPS, featuring the new Intel i7 series processor. This thing is simply amazing. It features:

  • 8 cores @ 8MB L2 Cache, 2.66GHz
  • 12GB Tri-Channel DDR3 SDRAM at 1066MHz

 

Another look.

I hate to sound like I'm bragging about this... I was always years behind the bleeding edge when it came to hardware. It's the first time I've treated myself to a decent machine, and I'm very happy.

To anyone looking for a high performance at a fairly low price point, get one of these... for less that $2k CDN it's a steel.

Bought the exact same box. I loaded Windoze Server 2008 on it, but am using its Hypervisor to run Ubuntu (server and desktop), Windows XP, and Windows 7 in VM's!

Pretty amazing.
Nice; this thing's more powerful than the servers we use for benchmarking ;)

Unfortunately for us pseudo coders, we're stuck in the land of laptops...need mobility...
