i picked up a dell xps m1330 recently... it's an intel core 2 duo T9300 @ 2.50GHz, 3 gb of ram, led screen, nvidia 8400m gs
it runs cs fine...but obviously a 13 inch screen might be a tad small...but i got it for the ultraportability of it :P
this is my 4th dell laptop and it's not like they break and i have to get another one...my first dell was a p3 850 MHz, hehe and it's still alive and kicking
only one of my dell's is crapping out...
