Dell comes out with the Studio 15 Special Edition laptop

Dell recently came out with the fancy upgrade version to their rather vanilla Studio 15 line with the Studio Special Edition. The Studio edition adds a nifty “Black Vapor” exterior paint scheme, as well a 1440 x 900 LED-backlit display.

The standard RAM is 3GB, but some models will go up to 4GB, with storage capacities ranging from 250GB to 320GB. You get to pick any one of three different trims that have varying specifications –
you can choose to get it powered by Pentium’s Dual Core or Core 2 Duo processor with an Intel integrated 4500MHD graphics processor (which comes standard), or you can pick the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3450.

So, what else do we have on this “Special Edition”? It has a 15.4-inch high definition widescreen. An optional backlit keyboard. It comes with Bluetooth and WiFi capabilities, a Blu-Ray disk reader, surround sound, HDMI and Ethernet connections, as well as a fingerprint reader. By the way, it runs Windows Vista.

Prices have gone up over the non “Special” editions. You are looking at a $799 starting price (after an $80 instant discount) for the standard configurations. Though, even at these prices, you aren’t talking top price machinery. You can find the Studio 15 Special Edition at your standard retailers, or at dell.com
