"Has no equal in the non-gaming specific laptop category"
Pros: Best laptop performance for a system without dual SLI
Cons: Expensive, but who cares? At this level of performance, paying more makes you feel better
Summary: This laptop is the best performing laptop to date.
Try to find a Lenovo, HP, Sony Vaio, Acer...with the same specifications...You can't.
Dell are very fast in including the latest components in their laptops.
What other aspects are important when you buy a latop? Powerfull speakers, silent cooling vents, bight screen, cool design, keyboard with a good pressure point, reliable WiFi connection.
The Dell XPS 1710 has all this.
Now let me respond to the contemptuous user who rated this system 1. What is your vision of the laptop world?
McBook=10, Dell= 1, remaining manufacturers=0?
I am sorry but you are defeating your own purpose by being so obviously biased...
Noone can call the design of the XPS cheap. You Mac users have become so entrenched in your own view of style that you don't realise there are other cool systems out there.
I don't think the XPS looks anything like a MacBook, so I fail to find any trace of emulation in Dell's XPS 1710? Can you be more specific? On the contrary, to me this laptop has many things the MacBook hasn't: overclockability, better 3D performance, Dell's Fxlight technology (I am straining but no, I never saw Apple use this).
By the way, in case you would think the iPods are the coolest Music/Video Players...Have a look at the Archos 604 Wifi with tactile screen...Apple have planned to offer an equivalent product only this December...and with a much smaller screen and only half the functionality.
This is reality and your wishing for Apple to be way above the rest doesn't make it so. At best they are on par with other high-end OEMs.
