    I guess this is more a matter of opinion but I just wanted to hear a few I guess. I'm going to be picking up a M1330 from the Dell outlet sometime soon, with Intel integrated graphics (not the 8400 - I don't really do much gaming), and was wondering if the extended warrany is really worth it (2 year hardware warranty is an extra $140). Basically, is there anything that I should be worried about after the 1 year standard warranty expires? In addition, what are the chances of outlet coupons (for xps laptops) coming out around the holidays?

    You shouldn't have anything to worry about, if you decide to go with that 1330, its only those with a 8400 you should avoid.
    Though given how the 1330 has aged a bit, It'd want to be a PRETTY sweet deal before I'd consider buying one.
