    I just wanted to know from an someone how big of a difference (size and weight wise )is going from an inspiron 1520 to a xps 1530? Would it be worth the upgrade? I like my 1520 it's just a little bulky. If I sell it now upgrading would cost a little more than half and I'd get a new processor,faster hard drive, and more ram.

    I searched the web and have yet to find a picture with the two side by side.

    Thanks,

    Well it really goes down to how much you really want to spend??

    Because they are much faster :) XPS' are fun


    If your using it as a regular computer to do Word and Web browsing stick with the inspiron honestly because your not going to use what the XPS offers


    if your going to play some games and what not or if you want to seriously future proof your rig ---------> XPS :)
