does the white actually go with the silver color of the notebook?

I ordered the 1.8... 160GB.. 2gb ram .. In india though

 

anyone?


I picked the white ...was gonna get black but eveeryone has blk

 

T7300 + 8600M + 17" WUXGA for under $1300.
Seems like a great deal to me.

 

I'm beginning to wonder if I really got a good deal or not...

Inspiron 1520
Intel Core2Duo T7500 2.2GHz, 800Mhz 4M L2 Cache
Ruby Red
2GB DDR2 667MHz 2 Dimm
15.4" Wide WSXGA+ (1680x1050)
256MB NVidia GeForce 8600M GT
160Gb 7200RPM SATA HD
Intel 3945 WLAN (802.11a/g)
Integrated 2.0MPixel Webcam
Dell Wireless 355 Bluetooth Mod
85WHr 9-cell Primary L-ion battery
3 year At Home Next Day service
3 year Complete Coverage Accidental warranty

$1723 shipped. That's after EPP discounts, $292 promotional price off, and free shipping. None of the current coupons seem to work on this system though.

Anyone beat that price with those specs?

 

Should probably be working instead of evaluating random laptop purchases, but the 1520 looks like a good deal too. The 160GB 7200RPM HD, T7500, 2GB RAM & 3 years w/ accident coverage are expensive upgrades.

 

I went base line on memory and hard drive because i can upgrade that better from newegg. I used the Military EPP about 20 min after the 1720's went up for sale and finally got the confirmation yesterday.


First time I have been happy about getting a dell!
