    Has anyone received a 1720 from Dell in the past month or so?

    If you have, can you tell me what (If any) accessories came with your system? Mice, Mousepads, headphones, etc...?

    If I am not mistaken the Inspiron line unlike the XPS line comes with nothing such as mice, mousepads, headphones etc. It will just come with the notebook, guides/manuals, recovery disks and a power cord.

    Eh, my Dimension E521 (which I'm using right now) came with a mousepad (which I'm also using right now) and a mouse (the touchpads of which wore off extremely quickly), and I didn't order them extra, they just sort of came. Surely the Inspiron laptops come with at least a mousepad?

    As said they come with nothing.. The Dimension was a desktop (i think) thats why you got a mouse out of it)

    Ya, the extras cost. Not a big deal IMO.

    Ok yeah got my 1720 this morning, no mouse pad or anything. I already bought a mouse and case for this computer what I really was hoping they'd include was a mouse pad but I guess not =/.
