![]() ![]() ![]() Memory is now DDR2 – using lower voltage than DDR1 – again at 533MHz. The CPUÊruns on a faster 533MHz front side bus asÊopposed to the older 400MHz speed, which other laptops on test use. This pushed the D610 to a chart-topping 2.06 in our benchmarks. The more immediate benefit is that the D610 on test here has a blistering 2GHz Pentium M CPU. This is good, because PCI Express should eventually lead to lower cost – after all, there are lower pin counts and fewer motherboard traces to run compared to the older PCI bus. And the reason why lies under the hood: this is the first notebook we’ve seen in the Labs to boast Intel’s new Sonoma technology (for more details, see p54). Whatever your opinion, there’s no denyingÊthat this is the most forward-looking notebook on test. Some members of the PC Pro team weren’t too convinced by the Latitude’s styling, lambasting it as looking dated, while others weren’t put off at all. ![]()
