Hey all.
Looking at getting a new laptop to replace my current laptop that I accidentally cracked the screen.
Things I wanted to know if owners could help:
- is how is the actual build quality on these things? (Dell laptops in general too)
- has the entire sales experience from Dell been relatively good? (Never owned a Dell machine..)
- if you're an owner of one, how is the LCD screen of the upgraded glossy 1680x1050 screen?
- is the warranty/accidental protection a must?
- Would you recommend it your best friend if he was in the market for a laptop?
This is the build I was considering..
Total is 1299, but the ticker is a $400 off coupon, dropping the price to 899, with free shipping as well. With tax, it comes out to near 980, but that's a pretty good deal i think
