hmm .. try ask SXpS 13 owner ... as i known they said hot @.@
GC 3DMArk06 is 3k or less.
there notebookreview, i think you can find the performance view at there. SXPS 16 over performance just 6k ++

hrm, after a week of constantly checking my order status, it's now 'Canceled' instead of 'Order Received'...zzz
strange thing is that my bank had already credited the amount from my acc on tuesday...zzz
now i have to wait for the coming monday to give them a call and have them explain to me...

any1 experience this before?
*
when i purchase the netbook from dell, it also shows canceled.. in fact, they change the order number..u can click on more order in the canceled status page there..see if it appear the new order number with the status or not..

wow, dat's a relief!
juz did what u said and apparently it has a different order number now..
however, the status still reads 'Order Received'...is that normal? (i've made my online purchase on 5th of june, bt the new order number states that order received on 12th of june)
btw, i'm paying by the 0% credit card instalment...so a bit delay shud be reasonable enough?
first time dell customer here, so bear with me~ tongue.gif

not to forget, thanks for the info, hico  notworthy.gif

err..for my case, it took abt 3 days to show order received after i place the order..i also use 0% credit card installment.. but if u need more infor, go to dell website, click contact customer service..then send an email and quote ur old order num and asking why it shows cancel when u check the status (pretend you still duno abt new order number) and want to know when wil you receive it...they will reply u change to new order number and bla bla bla..and give you an estimated date.. but normally you will receive it few days earlier then what they estimated.. my sister laptop was received about 1 week+ earlier which they estimated will receive by next week friday... this is just to give you peace of mind also.. tongue.gif

anyway, which laptop you buy???

How long did it take for them to change for you?
Oh and how do i get it exchanged? Call them? Send the adapter back by post?
