Re: Buying a new laptop - suggestions pls.
XPS is Dell's higher end line-up. Specs are generally better, and the exterior is different and more stylish. Obviously it is more pricier. I think at one time, XPS was targetted more for gamers, thus the higher end specs (better graphics card, more RAM etc). Now its probably more mainstream.
Yes and no. Dell XPS has more than one model remember that. 1330 is not a gamers notebook, but is a multi-talented multimedia equippment. Whereas 1530 differes only from the screen (I believe 15.5 inches are the spec) and is not available with WLED technology, thus the screen is heavier and bulky. Yet still not the gamers option.
The 17xx Series is actually perfect for gamers and is only recommanded for people, who use notebooks as a console.
So need to buy that one in her case.
What I really love about XPS. The fashioning of keys and front panel with aluminium. Awesome!
