XPS 420 going bye bye soon!!!
It looks like the new XPS 630i will be out in the next month or two. Many of you probably know about this already. We always seem to get overshadowed by new computer technology. I just bought my XPS 420 (which isn't really an XPS quality machine) last month and its here and gone. I'd like to return it and get a 630i when it's released, but I think I'm a little too late. We all get shafted again. Thanks, Dell. But I guess that's just the way computers are today. Today's new computer is tomorrow's junk heap.

The XPS 420 is an amazing machine for medium gaming and Home Theater PCs. It's quiet, priced right, has the ability to get the ATI Digital Cable Tuners, Core 2 Quad, one of the best graphics cards on the market, and still have the warranty from Dell. I think you expect too much for your machine.
I, for one, am really happy with Dell and their XPS 420.

When you buy something from any vendor, if it fits your needs & the price is right go for it.... Tech changes everyday ...
Dell will keep your Machine running in top condition enjoy it now :smileyhappy:
If you are not happy with what you bought find someone who can use it & get the newest & greatest....
Maybe go for the XPS720 Or wait for the next gen.....
Stop crying it does not look good on these boards....:smileywink:

Thanks for the replies. Buying a computer today is an exercise in frustration. There really never is a great time to buy a computer, unless you get a great price for it. I do like my XPS 420. It's a stylish machine that may have some flaws and rattles, but is still a good PC. There's no SLI, but then I didn't want to spend for an XPS 720. I think it's insane to buy a PC for $4000! But some people do it wholeheartedly. I'm looking for my XPS 420 to provide at least two decent years of service. I'm just disappointed it's on the way out so soon!!

If you just bought it, the new and improved isnt going to be that much better in the real world. I bought a 8300 when they were new, for over three years I still won many matches in TWL using it. Am any better with a 72O over the 8300, nope:) Enjoy the one you got and have fun with it>

GAWD! That 630i is ugleeeee!
I love the piano black finish on the 420.
I hope it will still be around in some sort of configuration when I get ready to order my new PC next month or so.
