The $20 is just a bit of software... nothing in the hardware configuration is different (as far as I know). I had the same option with my Studio XPS 1645 and looking back, it was in my opinion a waste of $20. I have long since removed the software and have never looked back.
Please someone correct me though if this has changed and they actually put in a different soundcard with this option. -

i'm also guessing theres no change in hardware since the software does work on laptops WITHOUT choosing that upgrade.
the x-fi is software that can enhance your sound. I would get it if you game since it allows for EAX4.0 and Alchemy, but you can also get it for "free" through modded drivers (not sure if it's legal...) -
It's not legal. A mere mention or a link of how to circumvent their drm would get you an infraction or account suspension here.
whats the difference between the sound cards?
