Dell XPS M1530 PC Pro 5/2008 - Dell's XPS brand was once synonymous with futuristically tailored, high-performance gaming systems. But with the acquisition of AlienWare in 2006, Dell sought to steer the XPS name away from its specialist heritage and usher in a new, luxurious, design-led range.
Dell XPS M1530 CNET.co.uk 3/2008 - After years of producing solid but unexciting gray boxes, Dell adopted a 'design-first' philosophy in 2007 that led to both smartly redesigned versions of its mainstream Inspiron laptops, and one of our favourite laptops of the year, the 13-inch XPS M1330. Dell has taken the basic design of that system to build a new 15-inch laptop around it.
Dell XPS M1530 TrustedReviews 12/2007 - If you're a regular reader or just a signed up member of Gadget-a-Holics Anonymous (then you really ought to be a regular reader), then you'll know it looks distinctly like the truly wonderful Dell XPS M1330 - a notebook so good it managed to snatch second place in the Best Notebook category of the inaugural TrustedReviews Awards 2007. However, the M1330 it isn't, because today I'm looking at its new bigger sibling, the XPS M1530.
Dell XPS M1530 laptop Pocket-lint.co.uk 1/2008 - When Dell announced it would be overhauling its premium notebook brand, the XPS line, with an ultraportable in the form of the XPS M1330, the company was clearly on to a winning formula. So, it comes as no surprise this latest model is exactly the same in styling but with a larger screen.
