    I was thinking on buying this laptop however i was wondering if there are any problems with this laptop such as build quality/throttling etc. Last time i bought the xps 1645 without consulting anywhere and found out it was buggy. Another note is it possible to purchase it at a lower price then shown on their website?

    thanks

    I am very happy with my purchase of the top tier model. If battery life is important to you anything lower than the top tier will present you with some problems. You hear of some issues with build quality, but my system is seemingly great. In terms of getting a price you can haggle over the phone a little, but they don't budge a ton on price. Also, you can look at the dell outlet and sometimes they have outlet coupons as well.
