Hmm, my ideal system was about the same price it seems. It looks like the biggest change was opening up the CPU selections to allow for some cheaper options. Or am I missing something?

I'd not seen this asked before so here it goes: How do people find the display hinges on the m15x and Dell 1730? I once owned a Sager 5282 and the dang case cracked all along the hinges after a year I babied the thing too. My...

Howdy folks, I searched quite a bit but this question is probably a bit old... I have an XPS Gen2, and wanted to know if there is any way possible to cram a dual core CPU in it? I don't care if I need a hacked bios, pinmod,...

Ahh well, this problem confounds me! I'd recently bought a new 160GB hard drive for my Dell XPS Gen2 laptop. I figured reinstalling windows, combined with my new Ram and everything would finally make my system stable. Unfortunately,...
