For about 1100$, I got a 15.4 inch XPS
Important Specs:
160gb harddrive (7200rpm)
2.0gh dual core intel processor (forgot exact model)
2gb DDR2 ram
Geforce 8400M G


Although admittedly it came with a lot of software (such as 15 monthes of McAffe antivirus and a lot of media software) and it came with a webcam (I didnt want a webcam and didn't know it had one!)and dumb fingerprint read thing (I guess thats good for porn?), but for all I know so do these guys get all that:

Also I bought a backpack for it (which is included in above price).

Ouch... that sucks hard. I'm not regretting my PC buy, I think I took a look around first before I picked it, it's always a good idea, but you gotta hate when that happens >_<

T-T I used a coupon on my inspron 1420 i bought mid july got it with backpack and a new razer mouse pad for 1200 ish T8300, 8400-GS, 7200RPM-HD, i basically got everything 30% coupon helps alot also messing with configures on the dell website usually the best buy with a coupon from dell is their "recommend" builds is the crappiest cuz it all cost the same actually if you didn't know if you configure the same it cost the same no matter what its just one has instant savings one doesn't coupons don't work with instant savings.
I have ass for brains so,
even when I shit I'm droping knowledge.

Dell may seem soo good because they are 2nd best at advertising and taking the first step forward in everything (just behind mac err..) Well sometimes you can just get lucky. Waiting will always save you money however time is wasted. So its kinda the case of would you like Time more? or Money?

just like travelling. Would you drive? Takes much longer yet it is cheaper. Or fly save a ton of time but waste more money. Also getting fliers of every single store helps Don't buy a dell though first mistake.

Well after looking at the studio 15 and such and configuring one of those to my needs, I decided it's just not worth it. The studio 15 would be about the same price (after my upgrades to a faster harddrive and a higher resolution display) but not come with much software(but a better video card). It's just not worth it since I need to have this laptop for school (which starts in 2 weeks), and I don't really plan on playing games on it any way(that's what my desktop is for ). I did install the new BIOS update which I didn't even know about until this thread, so thanks x1000 to bottleabuser. <3
