    Hello.
    First of all excuse my English.
    I'ii travel to New York. I want to buy studio xps16. I have to say that i have spoken directly with dell and i was told that they can not deliver a laptop to a hotel.So I send e-mail to BestBuy but there is no answer :mad: . The thing is that i want to buy a customized preconfigured xps16.. Does anyone know where to go and shop it directly? The Best choice is to order it now online and pick it up later from a store. Could anyone help me please..??
    Thanks in advance

    May want to look in to international warranty transfer issue before you buy one in the U.S.

    The trouth is that i haven't condidered this anyway. I'll risk to buy xps16 from new york for 1000 euros (1400 dollars) instead of buying it from my country which costs 2300 euros (3150 dollars) !!!
    I would be greatfull to anyone who can help..

    Try Ebay.

    I don't think it's worth the risk for a foreigner to buy a PC w/ cash in NYC.

    People from NYC get robbed dealing w/ craigslist frequent.

    Just get one from bestbuy preconfigured.
