Dell hurry up and release the super ugly and overly heavy XPS 1730 so we can get a realistic view of how bad it really is! 50 Comments »

"I detest the 'leaked' design of XPS M1730 and will wait for it to be redesigned."

If you DO NOT LIKE the design of the XPS 1730, and are willing to give Dell the time to 'fix it', you should PROMOTE this thread, as a vote AGAINST the design, but willingness to WAIT for it to be improved.

If you LIKE the design do NOT vote.

If you are UNWILLING TO WAIT for the design to be reworked (you will buy another notebook instead of either this design or waiting for a revision) DEMOTE the post. 13 Comments »

Midnight Blue XPS M1330 and (hopefully) redesigned XPS m1730

XPS products submitted by tknisley 08/06/07

It is understood that the painting process is painstakingly difficult for the XPS m1330 and that the Pearl White paint scheme was recently discontinued. There are several posts out there that call for a blue m1330. Why not continue with using the Midnight Blue paint scheme currently used on the Inspirion laptop line upon the XPS m1330. I could only imagine what the delay for such a product would be.

As far as the rumored design for the XPS m1730, it is disgustingly ugly. Perhaps the carbon fiber could be replaced by tuxedo black and could be outlined in chrome with Midnight Blue or Red on the sides with the XPS logo retaining its position.

Dell, you NEED to be original. I fondly remember seeing carbon fiber on other laptops from other suppliers-they are simply non attractive. You want your products to attract attention in a positive way, and using carbon fiber is hideous and will attract that unwanted attention resulting in a further loss of customers! 1 Comment »

This is possibly the ugliest laptop I've ever seen!

I'm praying this is fake.

Take cues from the 1330, please! 57 Comments »

BLACK backlit keyboard for Dell XPS M1730

Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), XPS products submitted by lorax1284 08/31/07

I know there are threads asking for Backlit keyboards: many of them merged into one.

Dell is introducing a backlit keyboard in the XPS M1730. Super.

But it's white-ish colour contrasts badly with the case.

Other comments about how "fugly" the XPS M1730 have been mitigated by the appearance of better photos (mostly with the screen / lid closed!) so maybe the outside of the M1730 case will be just fine... but that white backlit keyboard is a non-starter: opening the lid for the first time will be like seeing a beautiful stone along the forest trail, only when you pick it up, underneath is gross things crawling over other grosser things.

Consider this a backpedal from my "I'll wait for the XPS redesign" idea, cuz it's starting to look like I really only have to wait for Dell to source a black backlit keyboard. 5 Comments »

It looks like an engineer just took a vostro added some color and said volla! WRONG. That is a horrible thing to do. Give it some personality make it original. 8 Comments »

M1730 should look more like the M1330

I saw the pics of the upcoming Dell XPS M1730 laptop. I was really disappointed. I was not expecting something so ugly from Dell. By the way you can view the pics on this link:
Not for the faint-hearted people. Get ready before you go to this link and for those who have seen it before no need to see them again ;)

I also saw the M1330 and it look really nice. I think it might save Dell a lot of time and effort if they just made a 17' version of M1330 and call it M1730. Because I want a Santa Rosa XPS 17' laptop soon :)

I think including a 2 Megapixel camera on the M1730 would also be nice and color choice would be appreciated as available for M1330.

Looking forward to your coments.

By the way 'Dell' really appreciate the IdeaStrom. 27 Comments »
