Well, thanks for your response, but as I stated above, my finances allow me to spend just under $2K. The XPS1710 starts at $2300 and they even charge extra for 2GB memory !!!! Come on !!!! If I wanted to spend so much money I would go...

Hi all, Here is what my situation is. I currently own an Everex X5000XT, it is a basic 17" laptop with TL50, 2GB ram and 7600Go. The LCD is 1440x900 and the HD is 100GB 5400rpm. I think I unintentionally found a buyer for my...

Congrats on the computer. Could you also do a basic benchmarks, to show how fast is this model with the X1600 GPU ? I am still trying to decide wether better GPU is worth extra money. Thanks

Double, sorry
