I'm trying to decide between a Latitude D810 and a Precision M70,
of similar specification (2GHz CPU, 1680x1050 screen).
They appear to be the same size and style of case, with the same
connectors in the same places.
The difference appears to boil down to just the video hardware,
with the D810 having ATI X300 with 64MB of Video RAM, and the
M70 having nVidia Quadro FX Go1400 with 256MB of Video RAM.
Are there any other differences that I may have missed? Would I get
a lot of benefit from the M70? I don't play games or use CAD apps,
mainly software development and office apps. I would also want to
dual-boot to Linux.
Thanks in advance for any comments...
Cheers
Tony
