Powerful laptop, lacking on graphics ability

I have had the D820 for a week now with the following spec:

2.16GHz CPU
2GB RAM (667MHz)
WUXGA Screen
100GB 7200RPM HDD
512MB NV120 Graphics card
Biometric reader
Bluetooth
DVDRW
XP Pro

Generally the laptop scores far in excess of my old D810. However, on the 3D Mark scores the graphics card lets it down, (3900 on 3D Mark 03). The Quadro card is no better than the ATi X600 which is a real shame as the test scores place the processor power near to my dual 3.6Ghz Xeon.

Over all the laptop feels and looks better than the D810, it is lighter and performs most takes quicker, I am very pleased with the laptop.

Verdict

Dell's new Latitude D820 covers just about every base that a great business notebook can: this is one of the best mainstream corporate portables available.
