Laptops A little help here...buying XPS1530 tomorrow

[AceMcCloud]

Hi guys...

need a lil' help here...

I am buying Dell XPS1530 tomorrow morning...

The price the sales rep has quoted to me is 57k...

Even after 30 mins on the phone with him...he did not buzz. Saying that the offer is only available for new year eve...thats today and tomorrow.

Is it a best deal...or is there any chance of more negotiation. I haven't talked to any other rep as of now.

Help me guys...I desperately need to buy this machine...

And yes...I am based in Pune.

The Standard XPS1530 model available on the dell site...without any upgrades.

Core2Duo T8100 (2.1 GHz, 3MB Cache, 800 MHz FSB)

320 GB HDD

3 GB Ram

256 nVidia GeForce 8600M GT

57K is it inclusive of all taxes?? .I guess its a slick deal

Is dell still stuck at Nvidia 8600?
Another plus point to go with HP DV5 series. Comes with 512MB Geforce 9600M!

Its a tradeoff.. the XPS has 8600M GT with 256 MB GDDR3 and the HP has the 9600GT (faster clock, shrunk core) but with 512 MB GDDR2 (More memory, but also slower and more power hungry memory)... plus the dv5 series of hp has heating problems.. refer
