    Hello. I was just wondering why the xps 140 and the 630m were priced so differently with the same kind of configuration. Is the home section under dell.com different from the small business section? Your comments are much appreciated. Thank you.

    They're the same laptop with a different name, the standard warranty is often 1-year on a Dell Home machine and 3-years on a Business machine, although not always true. Other than that, just go with what's cheaper as the rest is mostly just marketing difference (other things such as taxes and large organizations having to shop through business shouldn't affect you, you need a tax id to buy through small business but you can just use your SS# for that)
