    I didn't see any other posts about this, so I thought I would. The XPS M1730 is now starting at $2k, finally making it a decent value. Dell also tosses $250, 20% off, etc. coupons half of the time, so you could end up with a good deal on the M1730. There's a 20% off coupon coupon going around for all configs, so you can get the base model for $1600 or an 8800M GTX SLI model for $2400. Wow, those are amazing deals, especially coming from Dell.

    Where do you get the coupons for the M1730? The ones posted in the Dell Coupons section only applies for the M1330 & M1530 only.

    Dell took $400 off the price and there's a 20% off the XPS M1730 coupon in the Dell Coupons section.

    Too bad those coupons don't combine. Price is listed as $2400 or $200 after $400 savings, the coupon negates the $400 savings and takes 20% off $2400.
