I just bought a Dell Studio 17 laptop. Tell me what it's good for and what it's lower points are.?

Question

I just got my Studio in yesterday, and so far it's been a sweet computer. What I want to know is as far as performance goes, how it ranks in gaming, multimedia, multitasking, and editing photos. I know what I think, but I wanna hear some other opinions. Here's my specs:

Intel® Core™ 2 Duo T9300 (2.5GHz/800Mhz FSB/6MB cache)

Genuine Windows Vista® Ultimate Edition SP1

Hi Resolution, glossy widescreen 17.0 inch display (1920x1200)

256MB ATI MOBILITY RADEON HD 3650

4GB Shared Dual Channel DDR2

Dual: 640GB (2x 320) SATA Hard Drive (5400RPM)

8X Slot Load CD / DVD Burner (Dual Layer DVD+/-R Drive)

Dell 1397 Wireless-G Card

Dell Wireless 370 Bluetooth Internal (2.0)

Integrated 2.0M Pixel Webcam

9 cell battery

Integrated Sound Blaster® Audigy™ Advanced HD Software

Back-lit Keyboard

Adobe Photoshop Creative Suite 3 v10

Yea, it's heavy, but now for me. I'm 6'5'' and around 325, lol so no problem there.

Answer 1

Excellent, top of the range in all except for the optical unit - a blu-ray unit would have made this laptop a dream come true.
