We have some xps laptops at work cant say weve had any problems with them probably bought 10 or so , only seen 1 with any hardware problems (problem with screen) i would suggest maybe buying directly fom dell you can configure it exactly how you want it and also include a 3 year waranty for about the same price

100 bucks more then best buy ,3 year warranty, 4gb ram, better resolution

Nice! I'm looking for one for my wife for Christmas present. Her old Hp athlon that is 7 years old is about had it. Keeps over heating.

I have an XPS M1210 and love it better than my MacBook Pro. The XPS series will get you American based tech support as opposed to off shore tech support. It's part of the benefit of buying the XPS series computers.

Yup the XPS 1530 does not overheat at all.. i love it its lightweight n fast.. and doesnt crash

Went and saw your laptop at Best Buy today. My wife liked the larger screen better but realized that it was too big to haul around, so she decided she wanted the 13.3" model as that one will easily slip into her purse. Yeah, it's a big purse and it has a laptop side compartment she never used. The smaller Dell also lacked the blueRay ROM too but she wouldn't really need that. The other thing she likes is the Red lid. So, I selected the computer based on processor and hardware I/O etc. She selected based on whether it would fit in her purse and the color of the lid. That's the difference between men and women.

Did you get that LO JACK software? It looks cool but I had trouble installing it. It kept freezing up on one of the screens so IO uninstalled it. I may call DELL tech support later. Have you tried the webcam with the video effects? We were in hysterics over some of those. If you haven't played with it yet check it out.

Tomorrow, I'll be installing MS Office, and Outlook, Skype video and our printer drivers and seeing how the photo cataloging works for her digital camera. The final thing she needs me to do is set up a VPN for her desktop at work. We're not sure she can do that as it will involve the company IT guy. He may want to handle that himself.
