Why should you select this?

The m17x pictured here, is a big-daddy of everyone in its segment or perhaps in other segments too! It’s a powerful desktop replacement with the extreme specifications.

Although there’s are many gaming notebooks available today, this one is pretty different from the rest as it has fascinating specs like 1GB Intel Turbo Memory, 640GB hard drive and dual 512MB NVidia GeForce Go 8800M GTX graphics, which are hard to find on any other machine!

However, apart from its breath taking functionalities it’s hefty price tag of $5628 could be quite an ask. But, for gamers, money doesn’t not matter and this one has the goods to make it count.

You will have to shell out BIG BUCKS or even probably need to sell your house/car/body for it! But all in all, it’s all worth it!

For home users and students:

The latest Dell Vostro A860 laptop is an affordable 15.6-inch laptop equipped for handling everyday tasks, and is designed for the home users and students, who are looking for a cost effective option to do all the common computing operations.

• HD widescreen LCD with anti-glare coating
• Intel Core 2 Duo processor
• 1GB RAM
• Up to 160GB hard drives

Why should you select this?

It offers the same practical technology for mobile business computing, but for small business customers and mainly the students and home-users, who value mobility and compact size at an affordable price offering!

Obviously Dell has its monopoly as far as the brand is concerned, but this machine is superior to the rest in its segment on account of its low-cost, without sacrificing functionality and performance!
