They do seem good value for money and Dell are a good make. Do you want to be able to take the laptop on trips with you or just for home? The reason I ask is that I have a Dell XPS M1730 which is a 17" and it's heavy!!!
Worth considering a 15 if you want to be mobile with it.

Very good laptops yeah. Bit bulky in either size but it's a great performer especially with the HD3450 graphics. Slap a blu ray drive in there and with the HDMI out you have a tody little media pc too

cheers lads, andy they do seem heavy but im only buying one so i can stomach sitting in the lounge with the misses while she watches crap on the telly
mike i was only looking at the base model, would it be worth upgrading to the hd3450?

If its just for surfing then probably not, unless its a very cheap upgrade.
But if you want to use it to play HD stuff through your TV then you will want the HD3450 It will also play games to an extent.
