you can get another dell and mod it to make it as good as this model for less.  Also what software bundle did this have

misread the price.  Not a bad deal, but check to see what it's bundled with.  You can easily spend a ton of money on software if you dont already have it

not bad then.  My only thing is the 14" screen.  I have a dell laptop and after a while i miss the bigger desk top screen i have. but go for it, especially if they honor the warranty

The user looks suspect in my opinion. Sub 100% rating feedback with very few... :-\

Do you need the versatility of a laptop or can you do with a desktop?

There are a shitload of sweet desktop deals on eBay from reputable companies.

This is the best deal on a good notebook right now and it's from Newegg which I trust completely.

I depend on my computer for my entire income.  I customized a dell and they threw in a few 19 inch flatscreen.  Entire computer was $1300 delivered and it's never crashed, never made me wait for anything, even though I do video editing, watch movies, and post whore while building websites all day.  XPS200 with all the fixins.   And of course, an extrnal backup drive and a movie/music PC in the other room where I back things up every night too.

Also I had a sony vaio laptop, but she is down :(

Yet you're a fan of Dell?

I fix computers on the side for extra income and Dell's and HP are the two brands I see with the most problems.

I'd buy an Acer before a Dell without hesitation.

my laptop is a Dell and haven't had a problem with it.  I owned an Acer desktop as did my sister and they were horrible.  My friend has an acer laptop and its not bad.  I have a gateway desktop.  I agree that HP's are bad though
