    Hello,

    I'm looking on ebay for a used studio xps 16.

    Common pitfalls that I should avoid? I am buying this laptop solely for the wonderful screen. I want to make sure that I get an rgbled. Are there two 1080p displays circulating? Also, is there any reason to avoid the xps 1640 with the proper firmware upgrades? Do I need the 1645 or 1647 if all I care about is the screen? I am totally fine with the last gen core 2 duo.
