    I actually don't like the look of that. Something about the red along with the glossyness just doesn't work to me.

    That color is nice.
    Wonder if Cin' will sell her XPS1530 to replace with this one.

    I thought something was not right with that red 1640 too. Maybe the red leather.

    It was only a matter of time really. Although, i wonder if they are going to use some of the more artsy designs found in their lower tier Studio line.

    Hi,

    Yeah, and Yours Truly would like to see Dell getting their act together [with AMD] and painting the HD3670 to the colour named "Radenoaux recolté 4670".

    Who will drink a glass of wine with me to it happening sooner than later [with the latter being more probable sadly]? (The SXPS itself was planned to appear around the Beaujolais Nouveau, but who remembers those Jayson vs qaz333 arguments by now? :D Yours Truly does for one! :cool:]

    Take care,
    AdiQue

    Haha Yeah...that was a very nice read...I would like to see if they do follow thru and put the color on both the 1340 and 1640. I might take a gander at the 1340 :D Not sure. Let's say...my interest is now on *radar* :radar:

    That is an idea...Though, I don't know if I could part with my Scarlett! :rolleyes: :D

    Cin ;) :)

    Haha, I still remember when I used to argue with Jayson. He was right about the laptops coming out, per se but I was spot on about his release dates. And his random blurting out of facts to those who joined NBR just to ask him.

    I think it was a tie :)
