In the market for a Laptop - Any advice, thoughts, on this one?


Question:
From Dell:

Intel® Core™ 2 Duo 2.0
17 inch UltraSharp™ Wide Screen
1GB Shared Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz
256MB NVIDIA® GeForce™ Go 7900 GS
120GB 5400RPM SATA Hard Drive
8x CD/DVD burner
Duracell 90-Watt Auto/Air Adapter
Dell Wireless 355 Bluetooth Internal (2.0 + Enhanced Data Rate)


For $1800 out the door, tax and shipping included. I've looked around on Gateways, HP's, retail stores and even NewEgg.com. To me, a noob when it comes to notebooks, this seems like a good deal. Am I getting a good deal here? I am serious into games, and would also like to integrate this into my home theatre (to give you an idea of how I intend to use it). Should I consider any other hardware, etc?

Thanks

Answer:
Hmm.. It looks good, expecially if you want to do many things with it. You should ask if they offer a 7200RPM hard drive instead of a 5400RPM other then that the specs seemed to be fine.

About the 2 year warntee worth the investment. Computers somehow tend to break after the first year. Protect your investment. 3 years they charge way to much.
get at least a 2 year warranty
