They're still pretty expensive. Dell have never been cheap either, but this is still good news.

They have kick-ass notebooks for gaming, but they still very expensive. I had one for a while and they could take a heck of a punch.

Just do not think you can mine on one.  :( I would consider buying one again, if the price was right.

This is good news even though I never really cared for Dell hardware...overpriced and cheaply made crap.

My friend has one of their gaming laptops and I gotta say I'm pretty jealous.  They are rock solid for high-end gaming.
