    Hey :)

    Think the XPS M1530 will be my new laptop of choice when I upgrade soon :D

    In the UK we get the choice of Black / Red / Blue, the red looks cool but I think is a little bit too colourful for me.

    Was wondering if anyone has some good photos of machines with the Midnight Blue lid so I can get a better idea how it looks :)

    Cheers,

    Chris.

    On my 1420, I had the Midnight Blue lid. Now don't get me wrong, I liked the color, but the black looks cooler on the M1330 in my opinion.

    The problem with black is that it will have fingerprints all over it. It is because of the material they use for the black. If not, I like black as well. Mine 1420 is brown.

    I love my Midnight Blue. Its a conservative color that has some interest because it does vary depending on how the light hits it.

    Also, the texture of the paint is kinda rubbery / velvety. More like velvet than rubber. It does not show finger prints unless your hands are covered in grease.
