The Inspiron 6000 and 9300: Dell's first Sonoma laptops

Most of the new laptops sporting Intel's new
Sonoma chipset (the updated version of Centrino that ups the frontside bus speed to 533MHz and adds DDR2 RAM and PCI Express to the mix—if none of that means anything, don't worry, it basically means everything runs faster) aren't really supposed to be announced until later this week, but some pics and specs have leaked out for Dell's first two Sonoma laptops, the Inspiron 6000 and Inspiron 9300. Here are the gory details:

The Inspiron 6000 – 15.4-inch, WSXGA+
(1680x1050) LCD screen, 1.73GHz Pentium M processor, 512MB of DDR2 RAM, 80GB hard drive, dual-layer 8xDVD+/-RW drive,
128MB ATI Mobility RADEON X300 PCI-Express video card, built-in 8-in-1 memory card reader, and built-in 802.11b/g WiFi.

The Inspiron 9300 – 17-inch WXGA+ (1440x900)
