I find it funny that you guys consider the "mirror-like display" to be a negative.
The companies charge extra for it, and you can have it removed(just opt out), you know!

This laptop looks ugly in comparison to Dell X300. I have 640mb, 1.4 processor, 4:3 proprotions (better for text editing), and it looks much much better than this brick. The only drawback is short battery life (about 2h), but its ok for me. IMHO Dell should focus more on design and ergonomics of their products.

Totally agree, since X300 Dell doesn't made good notebook in 11-12'' area. X300 is totally silent, sleek look, and performance is sufficient for XP/office.

i got my M120 last december. the feature set is quite ok. like the review said, the combo drive is very NOISY!! the firmware update from dell for the combo drive says fix for the noisiness. i've installed it but the fix seems to be a bogus. My unit came with a hitachi 160gb 5400 rpm. the initial setup of the hard drive was a quite a dismay too... 2 weeks ago, windows would randomly boot properly (other than safe mode). looking into the troubleshooting and tech page of dell. the only option would be to either reformat the drive or a complete system restore.

the next problem with this unit is the bluetooth module (355 internal model). the drivers seem to be full of glitch. the module couldnt detect nearby bluetooth devices.

the logitech builtin camera (particularly the mic) has driver issues with the sigmatel audio chip drivers. VOIP use would be quite problematic. I've had several BSODs when using YM or skype.

For a review that has a section dedicated to ergonomics, I was suprised to see that it doesn't mention the keyboard layout was a step behind compared to the regular (non-XPS) inspiron and thinkpad.

On your Testbed & Methods page you list:
"Maximum display resolution (1440x900)"
Is that true or is it1280x800?
What is the NATIVE res for the display (as that is the rest at which it will look best)?
