-
Available

Windows Vista Business BONUS or Windows Vista Ultimate BONUS (Downgrade
Service to Windows XP Professional)

Windows Vista BONUS (Downgrade Rights) program has been extended
through
December 31st 2010
for all
OptiPlex, Latitude, and Precision systems
(an extension from the original program ending date of Jan, 31st
2009) The Windows Vista Business or Ultimate BONUS is available at
no additional cost on all OptiPlex, Latitude, and Precision systems.
Ÿ

systems which will be available from now until January 31st,
2009. The Windows Vista Business or Ultimate BONUS is available for
a small price premium on Vostro and XPS gaming systems

- DDR3 Memory technology available for gaming systems and
Workstations.
- DDR3 memory modules provide increased performance by
allowing the memory to run at speeds up to exceeding 2000MHz.
That is twice as fast as the old DDR2 standard of 1066MHz.
- Currently the only Workstation motherboard that supports DD3
is the ASUS P5E3.
- Intel, Dell, nor HP currently has any Workstation class
computers or motherboards. I expect Intel to release a Xeon
class workstation with DDR3 support in 2009 and Dell and HP will
follow.
