    hi, there has been alot of talk about the new penryn in the xps m1530 but i was wondering, i just spoke to dell sales and they said the new processors will be added shortly to the dell 1525 but they dont have a exact date but if i order now i will have 7 days to uprade.

    How much more will the new processors cost when upgrading from the 7250 processor.

    will it be worth the wait as so at the moment i can get £30 off and then an extra 10%

    thanks

    I just ordered a 1525 and got a fantastic deal on it $699 for a 7250 CD2, 2 GB Ram, 250gb HD, Camera etc. I had thought about the new processors, since the mac's just got refreshed, but I don't know if the benefit I would receive to the battery would be worth not getting the great price.
