I wouldn\'t say it\'s a good deal, seems a little expensive to me. You should build your own, break it down and it\'s cheaper.

It seems reasonable, it has a floppy drive too. It is surprising how many new laptops are coming out now without a floppy drive.

That\'s a hell of a gfx card for a laptop.  Looks a little expensive to me.  Especially since I don\'t see Office at all only Works.  Also for $1700+ I\'d ask for at least a 2.0Ghz P4.

That seems a bit high for that particular unit. Save up for an Area 51 instead. Now thats a monster.

I would shop around a little more. I got this toshiba  http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?product_code=296277 for 1899.00 during a three day sale at compusa. They offered it for 500.00 off. It came with usb 2.0 ports and firewire. I don\'t belive the Dell\'s come with this. Laptops are a pain to upgrade so imho get the most up to date hardware you can get.
