    Default FOR NERDS: Dell Studio 1535 w/ MAC OSX + VISTA (dual boot) Laptop

    Ok I'm testing the waters w/ my Dell laptop. I have it setup for dual boot w/ both MAC OSX and VISTA Premium = the best of both worlds. I've had this for 8 months or so and I'm ready to upgrade again. I'm using a boot loader app to allow the selection of either OS during boot up, Windows is the default and Mac can be chosen by hitting the up arrow to choose it from a boot menu. If your a Mac guy you can play on the Mac and do your business on the PC... if your a Windows guy you can enjoy normal life and look cool w/ your hackintosh at starbucks.

    Computer Specs:


    • Intel Core 2 Duo T5750 2.0ghz
    • 3 GB ram
    • 32bit
    • 250 GB harddrive
    • 15" bright screen
    • Webcam
    • slot loading DVD Writer
    • wifi, blue tooth, finger print reader
    • HDMI, 4 usb, 1394, vga, lan, dual head phones, mic, sd/mmc reader
    • good battery + ac adapter
    • warranty good through 12/19/09 (i'm sure you can extend it through dell)
    • Window Vista Home Premium (112 gb partition)
    • Windows Software: Office 2007, Adobe Master Collection CS3, Nero 7 ultra, EasyBCD, AVG, Malewarebytes
    • Recovery (10 gb partition)
    • Mac OSX 10.5.6 (112 gb partition)
    • Mac Software: Adobe Master Collection CS4, more...

    Testing the waters $550 OBO...

    all software is legit but you don't get ownership of cd keys...


    integrated graphics but i'm sure it can chew through just about anything you want to throw at it as it was pretty nice laptop when i picked it up earlier in the year.

    Thanks that what i wanted to hear

    But integrated graphics is a no-go for me
    As i would want to be able to play some basic games.
    Was hoping it would have some sort of dedicated card.

    Good price on the laptop, and i wish you a quick sale.
