So, all Dell jokes aside...
I'm in the market for a new laptop, and the Dell ones seem pretty good.. Are they ok? Or are there any other brands more recommended? (Remember that I'm in the UK so we don't have the same range as you US guys ^^).
Also - if I do decide to go Dell, I've been looking at the XPS M1530, but I'm finding it near-impossible to figure out what batteries fit it. I'm away from the power a lot so I'd need an extra battery or two, but apart from determining "4 cell / 6 cell / 9 cell", I can't find a battery model, on Dell's site or e-Bay, that mentions the "M1530" model number. Should I be worried about this? Or maybe someone could shed some light for me on which battery(ies) will fit this model?
My budget is about £1000 maximum.. That's about $1,800 or so I guess, so that puts me out of the range of the higher-end "gamer" laptops, but I don't really plan to use it all that much for gaming or anything like that anyways.
Thanks!
