The Dell Precision M90 features an expansive 17-inch wide-aspect display and the latest Intel Core Duo processors. Dual processor cores enable efficient parallel processing when running multi-threaded applications and efficient operation of multiple applications concurrently.
Graphic artists, animators and high-end CAD users can confidently power up the most demanding applications, virtually anytime, anywhere and remain productive through features such as:

• NVIDIA Quadro FX OpenGL graphics with up to 512MB dedicated graphics memory
• 2MB L2 cache and a fast 667MHz front side bus 
• Up to 4GB* of high speed DDR2 memory
• 667MHz memory interface to speed the transfer of data
• Bright displays up to WUXGA (1920 X 1200) resolution
• On-board IEEE 1394, three-button touch pad, and DVI and SVGA video outputs 
• TPM 1.2 support

Dell Precision M65 – True Mobility for Mobile Workstations
As light as approximately 6.2 pounds* in a starting configuration, the Dell Precision M65 delivers the perfect balance of workstation performance and mobility.

• Up to 4GB* of high-speed DDR2 memory 
• 667MHz memory interface to speed the transfer of data 
• Up to 512MB shared graphics memory with NVIDIA® Quadro® FX 350M Turbocache*
• 128-bit graphics pipeline and 128-bit graphics memory interface 
• TPM 1.2 support 
• Optional dual batteries for extended battery life

Since durability and reliability are key concerns for workstation users, both new models feature a solid magnesium alloy exoskeleton, and the display bezel design helps minimize screen marking. Sealed spill resistant keyboards, full-time hard drive protection with StrikeZone, and steel reinforced security slots are included standard on all models. Adhering to Dell’s Design for the Environment program, both systems meet the requirements of the European Union’s Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive.
