I ordered my xps 15 jan and i got the email saying it will arrive on 9 march. However, they sent the laptop to me on 26th jan. 

can't really seem to remember where i got the info (i think a sales agent) which that you can only extend your warranty (if done after purchase) by another year. not like upon purchase like the 3 years. and yeah, the extension costs a whole lot more after purchase (had to extend my xps 1530 warranty a year ago ~1.3k RM)
anyone know why the xps 14 is delayed? argh. they just keep saying shortage of parts. was wondering if they can just send the missing part afterwards haha

feb 28 is so far, far away.

Hi guys . I'm new here . Do you have any idea of getting Dell XPS 14 or 15 without ordering through the website ? My mom is getting me one and she doesn't like hassle stuffs and she doesnt believe in postage stuff .

using the xps 14 for some days now (before I return it).

played the following games:

team fortress 2 (high setting)
sims 3 (high setting)
starcraft 2 (ultra)
world of warcraft (ultra)

I can say performance is pretty decent. for sc2 i didn't feel any lag although i should have looked at the framerates (got no fraps). For WoW, in ultra settings and in sholazar basin the frame rates hover around 30fps.

If only the price of the XPS 14 and the new XPS 15 weren't that so near to each other (at least for the one I bought) and if only Dell hasn't discontinued the XPS 14, I wouldn't have chosen to return it. and if only dell hadn't taken so long to deliver it to me. hahaha
