Hi.

I'm in the middle of ordering a 9400 notebook with the new Duo Core
processor.  However, I read some troubling stories this morning,
including this one:
http://www.tgdaily.com/2006/01/28/toms_hardware_uncovers_power_drain_issue.


Does anyone have more info?  Anyone have a 9400 yet?  Is Dell shipping
these or are they going to hold them until Microsoft and Intel fix the
problem?

Thanks,

 David

I am not surprised by anything these days, but I am surprised that the problem has been around since July without a fix. If it was me I might hold off a few weeks. maybe now that it has gone public a fix will be out shortly.
