Early this morning you could spec one out at dell.com. (at least I could on the internal Dell network). After I chose all the goodies it came out a little over $7200.00. Of course, I chose the two 64 GB Solid State hard drives in a RAID 0. The cheaper option would have been 500GB (2*250GB at 5400 rpm) or the 400 GB (2*200 at 7200 rpm) RAID 0 options. If I was really going to drop this much cash on an XPS I could live with the 128 GB HDD. Can you say wicked awesome fast? Configurator on the site appears to be down.

But it can be turned off and on with a keystroke combination. Forgot to mention the keyboard is backlit, too. But it can be turned off and on with a keystroke combination.

Also need to mention it will have dual hard drives in either RAID 0 or 1. Also the Nvidia GeForce Go 8600M GS graphics card will be a dual SLI video card with 512MB (combined). And the Ageia Physx processor. And it weighs nearly 11 pounds. We had a training class on these a few weeks ago and they rock. The release date on the 1730 was pushed back to 9/21/07.

Fingers crossed they will be..... No doubt a fully spec'd machine is going to be in the same price range as a M2010 - in the region of $6000 (£3000) - give or take a hundred or two......
