The Dell XPS starts at about $3300 her in Norway... imo the 259IA3 looks bether though... And it also weights less and is smaller, which suits my needs more...

What about the Asus Z71v? It comes with better specs for much less... though it might be more in Norwy.

I think it would cost more in Norway yes... Computers in general cost more in Norway than in America...

the uniwill looks like a nice machine. and clearly it is one of the best for the price in norway. uniwills are pretty good generally speaking. your service and support depends a lot on the store. i went with a "lower quality" store to save a couple of $100 but thus far can't complain, the servie has been good.

I also think this is one of the best laptops I can get for that price in Norway. Add in that I get an external 80GB HD (2,5"- very small and portable), a notebookmouse, car adapter, two bags, kensington lock, usb light and a 256mb memorystick along with the unite, and I am quite happy with it...
