Dell Precision M65 Review

Being one of only two workstation-class notebooks in Dell’s catalog (officially at least, since a couple of XPS-class notebooks could probably pass as workstations), the Dell Precision M65 certainly has to be a strong offering, but how strong?

According to NotebookReview.com’s recent review, the M65 offers “…an excellent combination of workstation performance (including OpenGL compliance), solid build and businesslike appearance, in a 15.4″ notebook package that doesn’t preclude limited portability.”

As expected, performance, build and OpenGL graphics were plus points, though the M65’s relatively weak GPU was a definite drawback. But if the combination of a 1.83GHz Core Duo T2400 processor and 512MB NVIDIA Quadro FX 350M isn’t enough for you, then the sub-US$2000 price tag should compensate.

Overall, the 15.4″ machine gets a thumbs up and a solid verdict: “Though I don’t need OpenGL graphics, and any number of other business-class machines would probably have been fine, everything about this particular notebook suits me and the resolution alone has made me forget about the little bit of time, effort and money involved in replacing the e1705 and getting everything else sorted out. In addition to being a replacement for the e1705, this notebook is also a fine successor to the T40, and that’s just what I was looking for.”
