I own the XPS m1210 and I have been using it for over a year now. The Pro is it is a next generation laptop, it was designed for Windows Vista and has worked excellent. This computer works just fine for the new video games. My laptop is small and very portable. It is also Durable with a hard magnesium alloy. (I accidentally dropped it from a height of 5 feet and it bore a full impact blow, the only casualty was a chip in the plastic and a dent on a corner. Computer works just fine. )Things to consider with this laptop. The battery is a dell Lithium and it is reccomend that you only use 1 type of battery with it. (150 Dollars). So replacement of batterys which needs to be done every couple years can be costly. The Laptop gives off a lot of waste heat if running at full performance, so a cooling pad is needed or the computer will slow down. My computer can be a power sipper, when the battery was brand new I could run it 7-9 hours on power saving mode. It can reliably run a high demand video game for over a hour, watch a movie for over 2 1/2 hours etc. The computer is designed for long power run without hook up. My battery is just now declining which sort of sucks in that I am to cheap to spring for another battery (:/
