    Well, it appears Dell has discontinued their forgotten child, the XPS M2010.

    It is no longer offered at their home or small business sites.

    Regardless, I still love mine, especially considering what I paid for it!

    I wonder if there is a new 20" portable design on the horizon from Dell, or is HP going to be the only source?

    RIP M2010... :frown:

    Something's afoot! First the 1720 disappears from the Inspiron section (although you can still get to it using the search), and now the M2010 is killed off. Come on Dell, spill the beans!

    I vaguely remember the M2010. Wouldn't the XPS One just about be the same thing?

    I think the M2010 is a lot more portable even though both machines have the same screen size. Also, you can fold up the M2010 into a briefcase!

    A number of M2010 motherboards have experienced failures. Probably enough to discontinue production (on top of the fact that was so **** expensive).
