    I would prefer the Aluminum of the XPS 1330 ~ mainly because I have the 1530..and that's the kind of palm rest I prefer.

    Now it's completely different on my Mini 9 Netbook. But, my 1530 is my primary, and the 1330 would be the same..if I had that purchased that one! :D

    The Aluminum has a nice feel to it. Nice and *smooth* :cool:

    I always say it comes down to *personal choice*, always!

    Cin ;) :)

    I would imagine the m1330's aluminum palmrest would be better because it doesn't pick up fingerprints or show them as readily.
