Great computer but that resolution is'nt okay.

NO THANKS! AT LEAST give me 1440x900 with an option for glossy or matte.

and the $1,499 for "best" option SUCKS.

the Vostro 1500 blows this away .. albeit at the cost of looking ugly.]]>Nov 27th 2007 11:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/27/dells-15-4-inch-xps-m1530-powerhouse-available-on-line/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/27/dells-15-4-inch-xps-m1530-powerhouse-available-on-line/Nov 27th 2007 12:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/27/dells-15-4-inch-xps-m1530-powerhouse-available-on-line/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/27/dells-15-4-inch-xps-m1530-powerhouse-available-on-line/and that is the opposite of normal, by a lot. And I am not just
talking about an exchange rate difference, its like 300$ on the same
configuration.

The Blu-ray drive is only 300$ extra, unlike the 500$ on the US site.
Here is the config:

Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T7500
2GB Shared Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz (2 Dimms)
250GB 5400RPM SATA Hard Drive
256MB NVIDIA® GeForce™ 8600M GT
Slot Load Blu -ray Disc (BD/DVD/CD read/write)
Intel Next -Gen Wireless -N Mini -card
Dell Wireless 355 Bluetooth Internal (2.0+Enhanced Data Rate), for XPSM1530
Dell BH200 Bluetooth 2.0 EDR Stereo Headset, VOIP Capable
6-cell Primary Battery and 9 -cell additional Lithium Ion Battery
Integrated Sound Blaster Audigy HD Software Edition


And also surprising, the XPS 1530 debuted on Dell.ca at the same time
as Dell.com, a first as far as I can remember.

Times are changing...
