    I've tried searching around, but really didn't find much. I've found quite a few drivers for XP Pro on Dell's website, but I'm curious as to whether or not anyone has tried it yet? I ordered my 1520 on Sunday, and it is delayed, but I'm wondering about XP. I will probably buy a 2nd hard drive and install XP on that rather than a dual boot.

    Anyone try it? List of all drivers needed?

    I will likely set mine up for dual boot when I have time (and the money to purchase an extra copy of XP). For now, sticking with Vista because it's there and I'm lazy!!
