Dell's New XPS Gaming Laptop

I don't like gaming on laptops. The keyboard's too small, a trackpad is nigh unusable for all but the most casual of games, the graphics and sound quality is sub par, and for the price of a gaming laptop, you could have a pretty nice configuration for your desktop and still have money leftover for your living room entertainment center for the same price. That being said, for those corporate executive types that can authorize their own purchases of equipment, Dell's new XPS M1710 Gaming Laptop is packed to the gills with an Intel Core Duo processor, NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GTX 256MB or 512MB graphics, up to 4GB of RAM, SerialATA hard disk and a 17-inch 1600x1200 display. Prices start at $2600, while a fully loaded M1710 with all the options will cost $3855. It looks like Dell isn't wasting anytime with their Alienware purchase.
