    Hmm…so it has no sound card and no normal HDD besides the SDD?

      With this model, you have to make your own sound effects.
      Boom! Crash! Pow! Whack!

      I would however suspect "THX TruStudio Pro Surround Sound & Subwoofer" indicates some kind of audio under the bonnet.

          On top of the Onkyo speakers u also have the sound of the cooler trying to keep the GTX670 from melting the laptop. Using headphones reduces it.

        • RedHab on 08/05/2013 - 17:37

          Yeah, it would be nice to see audio specs in dBA on these things.

          I didn't read the "too much comics" as a negative. On that note, I also feel it's rather poor etiquette to criticize an individuals articulation in navigating the English language. Many of us speak more than one language and will not always be absolutely correct in our pronunciation.

      Hi, it does have in built sound card and it has THX TruStudio Pro software with it to to power the speakers and subwoofer. Also has 7.1 channel output via SPDIF.

      We put in a proper 128gb mSATA drive for you, none of these smaller cache drives so that you can have a real fast experience. If you like you can add a secondary drive. We appreciate not all customers want this or would like to upgrade it themselves.

      Edit: Typo

        Have one (using right now). Paid $300 more for no SSD and less ram and 660m. Can vouch for awesome laptop unless you're a metal fan. Great speakers for a laptop. I also swapped out the dvd drive for a hdd slot. So now ssd+hdd. Can't ask for more. Used a dvd twice…in a external dvd drive so no issues there.

        Hey, just ordered one (First laptop/pc in almost 5 years :X)

        Quick question I'm assuming there is an slot to install an additional HDD without having to convert the dvd drive, or upgrade the sdd? (Was hoping to install a large HDD myself if its not too hard..)

        Thanks!

          I think you should be able install your own HD in the available HD slot.

          Pretty sure the P151EM requires an optical bay replacement for a second hard drive, so you have to give up your DVD writer if you want a second hard drive

        • Utopian on 08/05/2013 - 19:50

          Wasting precious space on a DVD unit is crazy IMO. I've been rocking a 2nd HDD since ~2008, and I'll never look back. SSD for the primary, 1TB for the secondary. BEASTLY and CHEAP!

        • Trojan on 08/05/2013 - 19:56

          This comes with a msata SSD. It means the HDD slot is free for you to put your own HDD in it.
          So this can have a msata SSD, HDD (not included) and an optical drive in it at the same time.

        • [Deactivated] on 08/05/2013 - 21:29

          Simply go on eBay and get a ODD to 2.5" HDD converter for ~$30 and then get a external ODD caddy for ~$15 sure it's $40 but lets be honest how often are you going to use CD/DVDs.

        • Utopian on 09/05/2013 - 14:15

          Point remains. DVD is hardly ever (never) used. Dinosaur tech. Waste of space & money. One external for all machines. Again, that's if needed at all. 2x HDD + 1 SSD is where it's at.

    Good but the current Dell 17R bargain is better for the price, bigger screen, better built, OS included and cheaper

    This has a 670GTX which is what really makes the difference, it's on Alienware territory!

    • Wraith on 08/05/2013 - 14:34

      This is the first time I've ever heard someone claim a Dell Inspiron had better build quality than anything excepting maybe a Toshiba Satellite.

      Dell do make good laptops, but I've never seen them put an "Inspiron" badge on any of them.

      • [Deactivated] on 08/05/2013 - 14:40

        Can't say I have any experience with recent Inspirons, but my first and only Inspiron back in the early 2000s had probably the worst build quality I've experienced with a laptop (or any computer) to date — the plastic was literally as flimsy as an ice cream container, and the whole thing cracked and fell apart after a little over a year. Dell didn't want to listen to my "not fit for purpose" arguments, so I got it repaired under my credit card's extended warranty and sold it soon after. Haven't bought Dell ever since. :)

      • [Deactivated] on 08/05/2013 - 14:51
        -5

        The comment about build quality was made mainly in comparison with the laptop in this bargain which judging by the photos is very poor

        I have lots of Dell hardware at work and they all feel like they are built with quality materials

        • Kambo_Rambo on 08/05/2013 - 15:56
          +5

          So your judgement is based purely on photos.

        • Pacify on 08/05/2013 - 18:57

          Wrong. Clevos are absolutely brilliant build quality. They arn't made to look pretty, they are made to work. Mine is by far the most sturdy, well designed laptop i've had.

        • MkVIGTI on 09/05/2013 - 14:40

          I don't think commercial grade hardware is the right comparison…

    • Andard on 08/05/2013 - 14:54

      Link? I can't seem to find it..

    • Ryugen on 08/05/2013 - 14:54
      +15

      Am I looking at the same 17R that you are looking at? The Inspiron 17R Special Edition for $898.99?

      i5 vs i7
      8gb vs 16gb ram
      1TB 5400rpm vs 128gb mSata (Edit: flipped listing for consistency)
      GT650M vs GTX670m

      The only thing I can see that would be awesome is the 17.3" but other than that, =\

      Better built? Do you mean mainstream brand quality vs less well known brand quality? I've used / had both and meh same same. I prefer Dells less actually. The keyboards on the Horize laptops are great.

      OS included, fair point OSes cost money. For me personally though, bloatware taints my view of all factory installed windows. But that's me.

      Cheaper…well it's cheaper because of the parts.

      Not to put you down or anything just wanted to compare the differences for those people interested in your "better bargain" statement, which was the case with me.

    Build quality is great. I have had some problems with the keys not being recognised when i type, bu its a rarity..The battery life was great when i first had it, now 6 months old, it lasts 2hours playing a DVD and then some…
