    Ok, So I Was given a Dell... :puke2:

    I really am disapointed at the Overclocking Capability...
    It has a POS Intel Onboard video card and it is a 64mb shared memory to boot.

    My Question is:
    Can I tweak the shared memory, mabey increase it?
    Can I overclock the pathetic P4-m Prossesor, its currently at 1.3Ghz.
    and last but not least can I run linux on it? if so how?

    Hope you all injoy this one!

    Yeah, you can find all of them on the dell website. they have a huge library.
    Oh and you might just want to download all the drivers they offer and when you start the install it will tell you what hardware it is for.

    oh and I Found out that over clocking is possible... :)
