Much as Dell can blow my right toe, I do like my fully tricked out M1730 and at the time, a better laptop could not be bought. Hell, you'd struggle even now to find a better gaming laptop, especially for what I paid for it.

....that Dell has gotten burnt (ha) bigtime with issuing upper-midrange latops with faulty midrange Nvidia GPUs in them then?
Oh its nothing but integrated Intel crap from us from now on!
Once bitten.......

As well, I absolutely love my spiffy little red M1330, glad I got in under the wire.

I'm going to continue enjoying my M1330--it's a great little machine--right up until the GPU dies.
Flame icon to indicate what the laptop will look like when the GPU dies.

Didn't XPS start off as a sub brand? I bought a Dell Dimension XPS 710 in 2000, before I every saw a Dell XPS <insert incomprehensible nonsense model name here>. So this appears to be a return to the roots.

Another very happy XPS M1330 customer here.
The Studio range doesn't match up in terms of visual appeal or solid feel.
Presumably the Studio XPS machines will retain the "Sony-ness" of the M1330/M1530?

XPS already was a sub-brand, like Inspiron. The only actual brand here is Dell. So now XPS is demoted to a sub-sub-brand.
