I just purchased a new notebook from Dell, taking delivery tomorrow. I was considering the XPS series. I told the Dell rep that my application would be heavy business use, including office, PowerPoint as will as Illustrator, PhotoShop and AutoCAD. The Dell rep advised against it; he said only to pick this computer (XPS) if the main use is multimedia and gaming.

Which one did you take? If for biz, i will take the Latitude D630.
XPS specs seem to be towards gaming, but it's still a notebook. To me the XPS is light and good for mobile users.

Since you're doing Illustrator, PhotoShop and AutoCAD, i would have taken the XPS since it's using a nicer graphics card.

Actually the final deciding factor (besides the recommendation from the Dell rep) was the choice of pointing device. The XPS only features the TouchPad, which I hate. The Dimension series also features the TrackPoint (or as I call it - Keyboard Clitoris). I use the keyboard for better than 90% of navigation and the KB Clitoris serves me well when I need to use it.

I prefer just the keyboard whenever posible.
When I talked withe the Dell rep, I did not remember the trade name TrackPoint and I told him that I wanted the Keyboard Clitoris. He had to put his phone on mute. It was almost 30 seconds before we could continue with business.

Personally I have had so much success with Dell that I have no intentions of going elsewhere. Between myself and my staff I have bought (leased) over a hundred of them. The company I just departed had over 1000 Dell note books in service.

I hear good stuff bout Dell Biz range notebooks, but not their home/consumer range.
Am currently using HP/Compaq Biz range, IMHO they are overpriced.

Last year, I purchased the XPS 1210, and have been very happy with the performance, and "travelability".
(it's also nice to see, that it is probably obsolete, by now...5555) I also run the Dell XPS 410 desktop, at my home. Very nice, and no problems. Pablo
