Dell XPS M1330 (product)RED: The Unboxing

My beautiful new laptop: slick, portable, sexy, red and...a PC!

I've needed a new laptop for sometime now and when my old one died of a hardware failure (may or may not be due to my beating it up), I decided to set the wheels in motion.

My final two choices were the Dell and white MacBook (only $100 price difference, the Mac being the more expensive of the two). I chose the M1330, because it's lighter, has more storage, I think it's more aesthetically pleasing and I'm excited about Windows 7. Plus, I'm contributing to help fight AIDS in Africa, which is awesome.

Dell XPS M1330 has too many problems

@longbeach225 You are so right. As the matter of fact, I've been backing up my files and preparing to send it off to the Dell depot to get the *takes deep breath* touchpad, mouse buttons, audio drivers and webcam fixed.

And I've only had it for a year. *sigh* A pretty, but delicate and fragile machine.

XPS 1330 is kind of a waste... Intel graphics, 667MHz RAM, have to pay to upgrade the processor. If you want to get its specs above the white macbook you'd have to pay at least $999, which is the price of the macbook. If you really want to find a better buy, part for part, get Asus or another non-mainstream company. Asus is predominately for gaming but they have a few lower-end laptops that outperform Dells and HPs that cost $200 more. These lower-end laptops look pretty normal too.

Really? The difference between 667 and 800 are minute and I don't game at all. The Dell came with double the memory and is a pound lighter. Plus, it's Red. Lastly, I got mine for $999--Canadian. The Mac is $999 US.

the m1330 is a bit out dated though. should've gotten the studio xps 13. m1330 are know for having failures of the gpu

[ariaofdreams]

I know, but I spent my own funds (it feels pretty good not running to mommy and daddy for money). Also, I don't really like how the Studio XPS 13 looks. :/ I don't do any gaming, so the graphics card issue won't affect me that much...I hope.

I love your choice, and have been using an XPS M140 lap top for 3 yrs. Yes I have had to call tech support, once for a failed key board. But that is why you buy direct from dell and why you keep your warranty up.

I think you made a great choice! It is stunning!
