4 Dual-channel memory requires 2 each of the same capacity memory DIMMs.
5 Wireless Claim - Speed claim for comparative purposes only. Actual speed varies with environment, equipment and other factors and will be less, while range may vary due to number of users, interference, transmission barriers (such as walls and building material), and other factors. Intel Wireless-N card: To achieve up to 5x the speed and twice the range of 802.11g, customer must use the Intel Wireless-N card with a 5GHz Wireless-N router; with a 2.4GHz Wireless-N router, speed will be less. Based on Intel testing using Chariot network testing tools in November 2006 on a notebook with an Intel 4965 Wireless-N card. Dell Wireless-N card: Tests were conducted by a third party testing company commissioned by Dell in June 2006 comparing the Dell Wireless 1500 Draft 802.11n and the Intel 3945 802.11a/g internal wireless cards in a Dell XPS M1210 notebook.
