Theres the Anti-Dell opinions I've been hearing so much about Tongue out

I've been looking at a Vostro 1500, apparently It's a heavy sucker, but I don't mind about that, specs:

Core2Duo T7500
Windows XP (a must for me)
15" Screen
2gb ram
160gb HDD
256mb 8600M GT GFX card

$1856 on special so $1956 Really. Plus it come with alot less bloatware than the Inspirons. But to me, the 1520 still sounds like better value.

On a somewhat related note, the new Inspiron 1530 came out today by the looks of it, it looks like a slightly better mix of purty and performance than the M1330, but the Vostro and 1520 are still my numero uno picks at this stage.
