Dell 9300 Experience Wanted

[Poker Cat]

I'm on the cusp of buying it for $2044.

Anyone have actual experience using this, especially on the road?

Specifically:

1) Can you fit eight or more (unsized) tables on the 17" Ultra Sharp Wide (WUXGA) screen?

2) Speed. My HP 1.4 GHz/480MB processor is too slow running PPx8 + PT + HUD. It works, but there are little delays that add up. The 9300 is a 1.7, not much faster but has twice the memory and may have faster graphics.

3) Problems? Like power, weight, overheating. I've had real problems with my HP overheating and shutting off with no warning.


Also, there are some coupon codes out there for up to $750 off, but I couldn't get them to work. Any discount/rebate info appreciated.
