When we introduced it originally introduced it in December last year, the M6500 was already the most powerful
and expandable mobile workstation we've ever offered. We'll continue to offer quad core i7 processors, but now we're expanding processor options to include Intel's i5 processors. We also continue to offer workstation-class 1GB graphics options from both AMD and NVIDIA (watch Inside Enterprise IT for guest posts from each of those companies very soon by the way). It also has 4 DIMM slots for up to 16GB RAM, can support 3 internal hard drives to make RAID 5 a possibility. It also supports an optional RGB LED edge-to-edge 17-inch screen with 100 percent user-selectable colorgamut support. And for those that need external bandwidth, you can outfit the M6500 with USB 3.0. The dual-core versions of theDell Precision M6500 will be available for order in the coming weeks.

Customers our employees talk to stress the importance to meet the needs of an increasingly demanding mobile workforce while providing the security and systems management tools required to make it all work. This is a common struggle for all organizations, big and small.
Of particular interest to our customers is how they can better:
- Provide the right tools for the job – How does an IT organization support specialty use cases (24/7 connectivity, tailored computing solutions like convertible tablets and mobile workstations) while maintaining a common level of support?
- Keep a diverse workforce productive and happy –Is there room for individual expression with designs that are as cool looking as they are efficient and easy to manage?
- Manage technology transition without workforce interruption – How does IT support OS migrations and new technologies like desktop virtualization?
