The Inspiron XPS for enthusiasts, such as PC gamers, who desire a high-performance computer with easy portability, Dell said. The system can be ordered with Intel's game-oriented Pentium 4 Extreme Edition processor.
Because enthusiasts demand better-than-average performance and top-of-the-line processors, graphics cards and other components, Dell will pack the Inspiron XPS with Intel's 3.4GHz Pentium 4 Extreme Edition chip and ATI Technologies' Mobility Radeon 9700 graphics card, which comes with 128MB of on-board memory. The Extreme Edition Pentium comes with an extra 2MB of cache memory, which helps boost its performance, Intel says.
The Inspiron XPS starts at a base price of $2,849, before rebates and special offers. That price includes a 15.4-inch wide-angle display with UXGA resolution, a standard 3.4GHz Pentium 4, 512MB of RAM, a 60GB hard drive, the Mobility Radeon 9700 card, a DVD burner and a basic, 1-year warranty. It weighs in at a hefty 9 pounds.
Fitting the notebook with the Pentium 4 Extreme Edition chip adds $798, boosting its price to $3,726. Meanwhile, increasing the RAM to its maximum of 2GB, adding a higher-capacity battery and installing wireless networking increases the price to $5,644, according to Dell's Web site. (Those prices include a 1-year warranty with at-home service. Selecting a 1-year warranty with mail-in service drops each price by $79.)
Because enthusiasts expect more for their PC dollar, Dell will also offer a graphics upgrade program, under which customers will be able to move to higher-performance graphics boards in the future.
