I really want a laptop and while i'm saving money for one i thought i'd do a little research. So here i'm just giong to write some questions i have, that the inactive dell forums i've visited don't answer. Here goes
-okay first before i forget to ask, i've never had a laptop and i don't really know how they work or if they differ form Desktops so if this question sounds stupid that's cuz it probably is - I've heard that if u get the WUXGA display (which by the reviews i've seen it's pretty good) u get super-fine pixles and a super-small screen but if i don't want the resolution so high can u reduce it like a desktop?
-Second (again i don't know much about laptops so bear with me) -what is light leakage? Some people say the 8600 has very little light leak but i don't know if that's bad or if any at all is unacceptable so i'm afraid i'm going to have to plead ignorance on this one and ask one of u geniouses how this affects the overall quality. (By the way i have a general idea so don't judge me as a complete idiot yet cuz you have a couple more questions to conclude that if u like)
-Thirdly, i hear that the laptop's keyboard is "springy"? Now i guess i no what this is but just to make sure why doesn't someone just tell me. Now does this "springyness" (if that's a word) affect typing?. I know some of these neat freaks like to pick every detail to the Atom (not to offend anybody reading this that has, sometimes i do) but does this really obscure the process of typing long documents, or does the change just give the feeling of poor quality?
-Fourthly (I promsie i'll be done soon) and finally (there it is) if anybody has the specs, such as battery life, processor speeds, memory capacities, touchpad, display, bluetooth, wireless, usb, ethernet, modem, pc slot, and pretty much anything related to the laptop that requires mentioning, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You for your Time and, If applicaple, your responses
