Thank you, Walt!

I'll try and get her to go for a model without blu-ray again.

In other news, got my new Dell today. Here's some pics of my work setup now. The new laptop is on the far left.



Specs...


Here's the other two machines I have at work. The little box in the back is my linux box. I use it mainly for VMs and running some scripts. The big Dell box is my workhorse. The other laptop is used mainly for working during meetings and giving demos.


So far so good with the new Dell. Came with Office 2010 and that's about it. I'll play around with it some more tonight. Looking forward to seeing how well VMs run on the i7 as well as doing some compiles.
