| Customer Reviews: Do not waste your money - see other reviews on separate listings September 2, 2010 Neema Kharva (Chicago IL, USA) My husband got this for me for my grad school, early Spring of 2008. As of this morning - the M1330 has exhausted its puny life span of roughly 2-1/2 years.
The problems started early 2009 when the adapter failed to charge the battery, apparently a common problem (google diy options). I was about 10-days out of warranty so as every one knows - the company that once was a hallmark of customer service (circa 100 BC) flatly refused to fix it. Even the fix they condescendingly offered was not a guaranteed one.
Apparently, some claim the problem is with the NVIDIA drivers, and a subsequent overheating of the motherboard. It could also be that the adapter jack got fried, the battery is dead or the charge cord is dysfunctional. In summating costs, I realized the best way to fix it was to try and fix it myself.
So I upgraded my bios, changed cord, changed battery (about $175). Up and running again for about a year, until last night, when 'ptzzz, chtink....' tongue-out - dead!
Cannot wake it up, tried three different cords, direct charge (no batt). Nothing.
I will take out the harddrive tonight to salvage it. My husband's work place will do it. I admit. Sometimes, just sometimes, I miss working in the high tech industry.
We have two Dell laptops (the other is a 'i-will-die-any-day now' vostro100) and two Dell PCs. Never again.
Now, if Apple hardware married nonproprietary software, I'd be set. But that is for a blog rant.
