The next decision for me was to order it from which Dell region - Canada, Hong Kong, New Zealand or the USA, as I was originally from HK, moved and lived in NZ ever since but I’ve been living in Canada (Calgary) from the start of this year and frequently travel down to the States. ![]() The Sony was way too overpriced compared to the Dell (not to mention I have had first hand experience with one and the webcam was just marginal at best in terms of quality, and it wasn’t as spectacular as Sony has marketed it to be), and I have no luck in trying to find a place which sells the ASUS with the Core 2 Duo at the time of my purchase.However, I still want the option of a capable discrete graphics subsystem for the occasional gaming needs (mainly CS:Source, C&C Generals, various MMORPGs or the classic game of Doom II).

By combining a portable 12.1″ widescreen form factor, 2-spindle design (HDD + Optical drive), A/V capabilities with 3G WWAN ready antenna, high quality Logitech webcam, and the option of a dedicated nVidia GeForce Go 7400 graphics chip, the M1210 packs a lot of punch in such a small size, rivaling many larger 15.4″ or 17″ models. It comes with Remote Control.ĭell XPS M1210 with Core 2 Duo Review Dell XPS M1210 with Core 2 Duo ( ) Introduction The has been a rather pleasant surprise to many ever since rumors of its existence leaked out earlier this year.
