uh oh - the Dell m1330

I opened up the fire red m1330 in the UK, ready for my killer presentation. I hit the button and . . nothin'. I had one dead, expensive notebook on my hands.

I've had it less than a year - great performance and looks, but frankly a bit flaky for stability. Issues included:

• Some BSOD when plugging in USB devices
• Strange screen distortions unless i pressed on the flat panel
• Some "System Repair" issues

Eek. Hard to say it's still my top choice, but frankly what notebook out there really holds up?

I called Dell on Saturday and they showed up at my workplace on Tuesday with a new motherboard and flat panel. He worked in the lobby for about thirty minutes and voila! Good as new?
