This Dell laptop is brilliant. I am using it at this very moment and I can truly say that it is fantastic. This laptop is very fast and has superb storage capabilities and high definition graphics. I would say that it is well worth the money and is probably my buy of the year. I would highly reccommend it to all who like computing. So its not going to be a great buy for your child birthday, but if you are saving up for a laptop this is a must buy one. Dell give you fantastic support and keep all your drivers up to date with the Dell Support Centre. The only downside on this laptop is that it is quite heavey for a laptop so its not the best for carrying around. In all truthfulness I would say that this laptop is brilliant and does exactly what it says it does.
My Dell Studio XPS specification is as follows:
OS: Windows Vista Home Premium
Hard Drive: 320GB
Memory: 4GB [2 X 2GB]
Graphics: 512MB
Wireless: Intel(R) WiFI Link 5100
Processor: Intel(R) Core 2 Duo CPU T6400 @ 2.00GHz
CD/DVD Drive: Optiarc Blue Ray Player
Keyboard: Backlit Keyboard

In my opinion my spec. is very good for creating interactive media as I am a Media/IT Student and it works perfectly for all my needs.

There are many different specifications for sale on the market, but I would say you would need at least 250GB Hard Drive and 3GB Memory and in my opinion Dell is the best manufacturer at this current time as they allow you to customize your package. Also the keyboard on this laptop is fantastic as it allows you to type very fast as it has a great feel to it.

To sum up, this laptop has great storage capabilities, high memory, fantastic graphics and is value for the money, however this laptop is quite heavey so I cant say it has fantastic portability.
