I have a copy of the Dell 64bit Vista, let me know if you need it. It would be still legal to use it with YOUR product key.

How did you pay? Did you transfer money to your friends account or did you pay using your credit card?

Its been payed with a Credit Card.
And BTW, i have a copy of Vista Ultimate disc(non genuine) and i have choice of Home basic/Premium, business, Ultimate etc on installation pages.

SO can i install vista home premium with the new genuine s/n with that disc? I doubt coz its was an early release nd seems to be an OEM.

@gopz
thnx yaar. Where are u from?
And also, do dell provide XP drivers for their lappy which have only vista choices on product customization page?

Hi guys
i have some doubts.
If i choose 9 cell battery, then will i get it as an addition?
That is will i get both 6clll and 9cell?
Im asking coz, its just not justifiable that 9cell battery upgrade from 6 cell costs 8k!!!

sorry, my OS went crappy when i tried to resize the partition using partition magic.
Now just reinstalled fresh copy of vista and all drivers....phew it was a mess

ill post the review today nite dude..
and i saw ur thread. I have some opinions. Get the 9cell battery. A 6-cell battery if not much of a use with such powerful proccy nd gcard. And using it for browsing with aero enebled nd decent brightness will last less than 2hrs only.

And the shipment was real fast, It took only 2 days after payment nd it reached home the 2nd day noon. Thens Dell started new production at Chennai. BTW Im from Kerala.

6 Cell Battery
90W Charger
Dell Wireless Bluetooth headset
8 in 1 card reader

Noise isolation ear buds
RJ-11 modem cable
1 Year Dell XPS Care



I got some discount on price with the help of my bro's friend in there.
The quoted price incl of taxex and shipping is 50613/-



Howz the deal guys?

I think i cud never get such config from compaq, HP or others at similar price.
Now i feel i shud have opted for 1680*1050 for 2.4k more. But the dell guy over phone was saying that ull need it only if u work with CAD etc. I said i wud be doing gamin, photoshop, web page design and flash desighning. But he says theres nothin gr8 about that higher resolutions. Now me too begins to think that, coz usually that xreme HD res is found on 20~22" TFTs. Wat gud is it for on a 15.4" TFT screen. I think current 1440*900 is gud enuf.
wats ur opinion guys?


Lots of kudos friend. But how did u do it man??????
