Anyway, I have to say, Dell's website makes it incredibly difficult
to search only for models using a specific processor -- in this case,
the Xeon 5100 series (codename "Woodcrest"). I only discovered that
the closest match was the Precision 490 because someone mentioned
this on a Mac forum.
That's because CPU is not by any means the most important choice in
deciding what machine to order.
But if you *want* to search by CPU, shouldn't you be able to do that?
You will find the same CPU in a number of product lines, since the
CPUs are compatible with a number of motherboards (Dell's
motherboards are all made by Intel).
Why can't I just say "Show me all the models you have that use this
particular CPU?" Would that not make it easier to compare Dells not
just to Macs, but to offerings from other PC manufactures?
I think Dell's site is badly organized.
