Dell Mobile Workstation Gets Up To Speed

Did you know Dell was celebrating the 10th anniversary of its Precision workstation brand? The new Precision M6300 is meant to jog your memory -- Dell describes the 8.5-pound laptop as the company's most powerful mobile workstation yet.

While a base configuration starts at $2,714, M6300 shoppers can push the envelope with dual-core processor choices including Intel's 2.6GHz Core 2 Duo T7800 and 2.8GHz Core 2 Extreme X7900, as well as up to 4GB of dual-channel memory with 36-bit addressing enabling up to 4GB of memory under a 64-bit operating system. Combining a new CPU with Nvidia's Quadro FX 1600M 512MB TurboCache (256MB dedicated memory) graphics accelerator, Dell boasts that the M6300 improves performance up to 70 percent in ISV-certified, graphics-intensive applications compared to the previous-generation Precision M90.

Two 17-inch widescreen displays -- with 1,440 by 900 or 1,920 by 1,200 resolution -- are offered, as are 7,200 rpm hard drives up to 200GB or a 32GB solid-state flash drive, plus Bluetooth and HSDPA mobile broadband wireless.
