PRICE DROPPED TO $1100...I've got to sell this ASAP.
Hey, I posted this over at Club Titan and Titan Talk. I'm an active member over there with over 1200 posts at Club Titan and over 2200 at Titan Talk.
I bought a loaded Dell XPS M170 direct from Dell on April 14, 2006. It is a 17" gaming laptop. It is only around 8 pounds, and I easily took it to school with me in the laptop bag I bought for it. I sold my previous laptop (a 12" laptop) in order to get a 17" laptop, but I've decided I want to get another small laptop again, therefore I'm selling it! The M170 was fully loaded when I bought it, and the price was a little over $2200 when purchased in April. Currently, the new XPS M1710s start out at $2299 base at dell.com. There are 120 days left on the warranty which expires April 14, 2007. The laptop will be restored to the exact factory specs when shipped to you. Dell has a procedure you can do which restores the laptop exactly as if you are opening it for the first time. When you power it on, it will make you run through the entire setup as if it's a brand new computer. LAPTOP BAG INCLUDED!!!
Here is a complete 3rd party review by CNET on the XPS M170:
http://reviews.cnet.com/Dell_XPS_M170/4505-3121_7-31520758.html?tag=return
The good: Excellent game performance; top-shelf processor and graphics engine; illuminated case; lightweight for a gaming machine; good multimedia features; full assortment of ports and connections.
The bad: It's not cheap.
The bottom line: Powered by a top-shelf processor and graphics engine, the Dell XPS M170 is one of the fastest and slimmest gaming machines we've ever seen.
The specs on the laptop are as follows:
2.00ghz Pentium M Dothan Processor (Equivalent to 3.4ghz desktop chip)
1.0GBDDR2 RAM (I upgraded to this, it originally came with less)
The computer is blazing fast with regular daily use programs, as well as high-intensity games.
60GB 7200rpm HARD DRIVE (Fastet access speeds for a laptop, spacious enough for all your games, movies and mp3s)
7800 GeForce Go 7800 Ultra grahics card (Blazing video and game graphics performance)
8X DVD-RW Optical drive (Watch and Burn DVDs, Listen to and Burn CDs at breakneck speeds)
Intel 2200 a/b/g wireless card (Connect to your router or hotspots wirelessly)
Dell 350 Bluetooth module built in (Sync your cell phone, connect a printer, headset and other accessories wirelessly)
17" Widescreen 1920x1200 Trulife display (Watch movies in HD resolution, Watch games come to life right in your face) (no dead pixels or problems with screen)
Genuine Windows XP Media Center Edition
Comes with original 130W AC adapter and 80 WHr 9-cell Lithium Ion Battery (NOT AFFECTED BY DELL BATTERY RECALL!!)
16 Color [Panel ,Fan , Speaker LED Light], Ruby,Emerald,Amber, Sapphire, Amethyst,Topaz & Diamond & ETC (you can independly change the colors on the outside of laptop, or turn them off completely)
Other Features:
* 6 USB 2.0 slots
* SD Memory Card reader
* S-Video
* Headphone & Microphone jacks
* Modem
* 10/100/1000 Ethernet port
* PCMCIA slot

Oh by the way, the speakers are very good and it has a mini-subwoofer on the bottom of the laptop. It has great sound for movies, games, mp3s, and CDs.
