Re: Laptop question
I just bought a Dell XPS (2800$) and I am very satisfied with it. You really can't beat dells customer service. For example, My girlfriends monitor was already having problems about 4 months into her purchase of a Dell Laptop. They were at our doorstep that next day with a brand new 17 inch monitor. Took 5 minutes to replace the monitor and they were out of our hair.
I bought a monitor and needed another power cord. Called them up at 5PM, I had a cord on my doorstep the next morning at 8AM.
I can run Oblivion with near max settings (though, I had no reason to try to max it... The glow gets to me after awhile. ;o)). It does run hot, but what powerhouse of a laptop doesnt?
I program on this laptop all of the time and it takes the beating I give it well. Also, having it for college is a great asset.
Anyway, if you have the money or the credit, spend a lot. My last laptop lasted me 4 years. This one will last me another 4 years. Of course, it wont be a gaming laptop for 4 straight years, but it'll work.
Regards,
