I have been very eager to get the XPS16. A month back, the Dell coupon still worked for this unit but the coupon offer for XPS16 has stopped. Very sad cry.gif .

On top of that, I call Dell hotline today and the sales agent told me that there will be no further discount but will throw in a laptop bag. thumbup.gif

Additionally, OEM Windows 7 64-bit DVD will not be provided and we need to do a system backup of 2 DVD before we ever format the machine. doh.gif  Did you guys went through all this trouble? rclxub.gif

wait..

is it true that dell did not provide the OEM windows 7 64 bit dvd?

so sad if like that.... blink.gif

but in my order this is stated..

'Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium 64bit (English) DVD Media (EMRP)-(quantity 1)'..

what does that mean? blink.gif

Dell gave me the Windows 7 reinstallation dvd - is it the same?

Resolved my adapter heat problem after on the line with Dell support for two hours.

The problem is, you never know what's going to happen in the future..its Insurance icon_rolleyes.gif...well, like you said, covers everything when something happen but wasted when nothing occur but then again, for safety measure, its best to have something to rely on when accident happen, no tongue.gif


Added on July 3, 2010, 12:41 amJust choose which you think is the best for you...as for me, 2 years in enough nod.gif..3 years when you want to use the laptop for quite a long time icon_rolleyes.gif

i agree with this...we never know what will happen..

if anything bad happen can just call them tongue.gif

@ivan92

the palmrest area is not that hot..before this i ran 3dmark06 and it just warm..it will not make u uncomfortable tongue.gif

the keyboard and the touchpad are very comfortable to use..i can say the keyboard has much better quality than my previous dell studio 15 laugh.gif
