Hey peeps,

Just wondering (flames aside) what anyone's (helpful!) thoughts were on a £1200 price tag for the following:

Dell XPS Gen 2 M170 Laptop
Intel Pentium M 2.26GHz, 798MHz
2GB RAM
NVidia GeForce Go 7800 GTX 256MB
1920x1200 res 17" Ultra Sharp (X-Black type coating) WUXGA screen
NO DEAD PIXELS
On Board Bluetooth
On Board WiFi
Creative Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS PCMCIA Sound card
XPS Laptop Rucksack
Spare Battery (Neither are of the famous exploding type!!!)
Docking station (Elevated type)

It's in pristine condition (thanks to the carry bag) and is almost exactly a year old. It comes with all the CD's, drivers etc... (I think I have the manuals in a box somewhere too).

Plays BF2, BF 2142, FEAR, Prey etc... on Maximum res (widescreen is sweet) with high/medium graphics settings with no issues.

With my ZBoard, Saitek Cyborg and Daimondback plugged in it's just like a desktop (Though quicker then my housemates 3.2GHz P4 at loading into BF2 Muahahah!) but portable!

Erm... Think thants about it.

Let me know your thoughts.

Cheers,

Q

Thats what my first search bought up. Althought these a prolly hot hot hot :)

Other that that I aint got a clue, it's a decent lappy but with prices falling all the time and new stuff always being released I'd find it hard to seperate with the cash.

You funnin with me Pennywise!?! Play fair! :P

That gumtree machine must be suspect (though the price is still a smack in the mouth for me). I checked ebay and my price seemed fair. You won't have the police banging in your door when it connects to Dell Support for upgrades either! ;)
