    Hi Folks,
    What would you think of a dell laptop for €1,487.77 including delivery with the following specs? Is that a reasonable price for a laptop like this?

    I'd like to upgrade my dinky medion laptop to something more powerful, play a few games and ideally start using ubuntu + VMWare to host a bunch of different OSs.

    Its that price with the 10% off code already posted on boards (cheers!!), getting it through the epp program and having another 130Euro off until the 26th March)

    Here it is:

    XPS M1710
    Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T7400 (2.16 GHz, 667 MHz FSB, 4 MB L2-cache), Genuine Windows Vista® Home Premium - English
    Catalog Number: 5102 N03X7102
    Memory 4096MB 667MHz Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM [2x2048]
    Video Card 512MB DDR3 nVidia® GeForce™ Go 7950 GTX graphics card
    Hard Drive 320GB (5.400rpm) SATA Hard Drive
    Modem 56.6k V.92 Capable Internal Modem & Adapter - Ireland/Spain
    CD/DVD Drives Fixed Internal 8X DVD+/-RW Drive including software - Vista
    Wireless Local Area Networking Intel® Pro Wireless 3945 802.11a/b/g Mini-PCI Card (for Core 2 Duo Processors)

    Any comments appreciated!
    Thanks!
    Rob.
