The reason I wanted to swap it over was because Dell are throwing in the extra stick of 512 for free (I've had some trouble with their Indian call centre
) and it would be better off in mine.
To be fair Dell don't seal their cases and if stuff goes wrong they often ask you to post it to them for a replacement so I cant see it causing a real problem with the warranty, if something goes wrong (not that I'm expecting it to, my original Dell hasn't had a problem in its first year) then I can always stick it back.
