    Ok I have been searching for several months now and the time has come to FINALLY order my 1st laptop....I am interested in the Inspiron 1525 and the xps 1530...Which would be best for me?.

    My budget ranges from 0-1800.00

    All I wanna do is watch movies and such on vacation...Check email, bank stuff, etc...

    My 14 year old son may game on it a little ( while on vacation), although I have no idea about games..

    I don't need it for storing photos or anything, I have a desktop for that..

    Any help is appreciated.... Also what does the 1525 have that the 1530 doesn't?
