Weird keyboard - need to hit keys too hard for comfortable typing. Otherwise end up with missing letters from words.
A criticism of Microsoft really - with the screen resolution 1024 x 800 the new Office 2007 has a ridiculously large ribbon and icons which doesn't appear to be customisable - reduces working screen area. If you do lots of wordprocessing - get a bigger screen.

I am about to place an order for this XPS 1330. I need to install XP on this, as I do not want to waste my time on Vista. I have seen users breaking their head for drivers on this machine for XP.

Thanks in advance

A word of warning though - Don't, under any circumstances try to put a mini-cd in the slot loading drive. I had to use two knives to fish one out.

Dell fixed the laptop after sending an engineer out three times, replacing the motherboard twice, the graphics card, display and RAM. It would have been cheaper for them to give me a new laptop, but if it works I'm not complaining. =)
