I'm thinking selling off my current XPS 2 (w/ the 6800 ultra) and picking up one of the new M1710's with the 7900 and the core duo this summer. Now I'm wondering, can you hook up consoles to the dell TV tuner that's optional with MCE...

great stuff dude. I'm a big fan of 3ds max, although I've also been using blender3D lately since the price of upgrading max all the time could drive a college student broke...

If only this baby had come out sooner. I'm enjoying my XPS2 and feeling good about my choice especially with the deal I got, but this looks pretty solid. And it's got a numpad. wtf was dell thinking?

Your loss is terrible and represents a pretty scary thought. As a generally broke @$$ college student this laptop embodies almost a month of banging away as a lowly intern. The idea of having it stolen by some dumb little butt-wipe is...

I'm definitely way more interested in dual core than 64bit at the moment. Dual Core Yonah would make up for the one weak spot of my XPS2's P-M that affects me -- 3D Animation. Also, with the widescreen I like to do lots of stuff at the...

looks cool, I'll keep an eye on it. I agree with NateL, I hope it's not a great looking piece of garbage. Has anyone else seen the previews of "The Witcher?" I thought that looks like fun, and the pseudo-Diablo in 3D style...

I haven't gotten too far into KOTOR II (No saber yet!) but up to this point I would agree that the original was a better game, but the sequel has been a pretty solid experience so far...just started to get impatient to start force...

Chances are when school starts back up (we're pretty late) it'll stay in my room...triple locked to the desk and anything else difficult to move. I don't think I'd ever pay attention in class if I brought a laptop with me, although the...

I thought F.E.A.R. was great. Doom 3 always bored me after a few hours of play, but I went through the F.E.A.R demo multiple times trying different things and it was great fun (I didn't realize how brutal the damage effects can be my...

This reassures me a little about buying complete care, I'm always going around the house with my XPS2 held in one hand and a mouse/adapter in the other, if I trip on the stairs it's going to be toast. Hopefully some of these messages...
