@titana.. Any other things that you would suggest to be done on the first run of the laptop? Also.. xps comes with a trial version of mcafee which i'm gonna remove.. so.. which antivirus/anti-malware/firewall should i go for? some of my friends recommended me to go for...

hmm.. i'll get the SP1.. should i backup after defrag+partition or before?

i was thinking of installing acronis true image n get a proper backup once i uninstall all the crap n set up with all my essential programs.. Is the HDD partitioned into drives or do i have to do make logical drives myself?

Hey Naveen, Even i have ordered the same laptop last week. It is yet to arrive. Just had a few questions though.. 1. Does dell have a factory image (backup) on the HDD itself? So that one can restore whenever he wants and start afresh.. Or did you backup yourself? 2. What all bloatware...

Hey techies.. i configured the xps 15 as well as the (recently launched) inspiron 15r to a similar specification. These are the two specifications: (differences are highlighted) Inspiron 15R 5110 Rs. 43,200 Windows 7 Home Basic SP1 64bit i5-2410M 2.30 (upto 2.90GHz Turbo) 4GB DDR3 1333Mhz GT...

Congrats! :) Please post the config along with the cost and the discounts that you managed to get..

If i'm going for dell, then should i go for the i5-2410M or i7-2630QM? Is it worth upgrading for Rs.3,075.16? With 2 more cores, it'll surely improve the performance a lot, but will it affect my battery life to a great extent? (i am going for a 6-cell) Also, should i uprgrade from 500gb hdd...

Yes, no recovery disks. Neither drivers nor the OS. Check here. (just below the specs) Dell gives the drivers disks (which can also be d/l from their website). It does not provide the operating system or resource disks in the box for Windows 7 Systems. But, a recovery disk can be created for...

i've updated my last post, so that we can compare side-by-side. :) --- Updated Post - Automerged --- it seems that the L501x beats the Sony.. and its just the predecessor of the L502x that we're talking about.

DELL's viewpoint: B+RGLED screen means (slightly) better Video JBL speakers means excellent Audio (superlative degree used beacause this spec just cannot be compared) Less plastic means studier Build nVidia's Optimus means better GPU Switching = more Battery Life Matte surfaces mean less of...

What are the problems that you faced with the CB15? Is the GPU switching smooth enough? Do the glossy surfaces act like a finger-print magnet? Can you put up a summary of your review (pros/cons)? thanks in advance!

Comparing both screens: DELL SONY Contrast Ratio: 646-666 667 :1 Black Level: 0.38-0.41...

But, I have heard that the Dell's screen is worth every penny. Is the Sony FHD screen B+RGLED or WLED? Can you compare the Sony FHD screen with B+RGLED screen of Dell?

How much battery life did you get? Do you have the 6-cell or the 9-cell?

Can you compare this laptop to the Dell XPS 15 (L502x)? What are the major differences? Which one is better?

Hey guys, I have decided to buy a new laptop and am confused between these two models. Please help me decide the right one. DELL XPS 15 L502x (Rs.52,838.13 / Rs.59,125.23 with B+RGLED FHD) 15.6"(39.6cm) HD (1366x768) WLED display with TrueLifeâ„¢ Coreâ„¢ i5-2410M 2.30 GHz with TurboBoost...
