    Hi guys,

    I want to buy a dell XPS 1530 but I am not in any kind of emergency and was wondering if maybe after Xmas I might find good deals. Right now there are few deals for the 1530 (It's all about the inspirons :( ) so I was thinking I should be patient and wait for deals after the Xmas.

    Am I wrong in thinking that?

    Well by then the xps 1530 will have been replaced. Maybe you should just wait?

    when will this happen? Does this mean that the new line is going to be expensive? Will they try to have massive rebates on the left over xps or are they just going to make the xps disppear?

    Sorry about all the questions.
