I heard all kind of "horror stories" about the X5 and the X3i before and after I bought them.

Some of the stories ended up being the result of "user error." Other's were the result of some minor glitches from Microsoft and/or Dell. Some were the result of really anal maniacs (no offense intended--this sometimes describes me), who wouldn't settle for less than perfection.

In my experience, both of my Dell's have been great machines. No regrets and both are still humming along.

Don't ignore the threads, as some stories/issues might be serious and problematic. But, in my opinion, take most with a grain of salt.

And, I've found Dell to be pretty quick to replace a defective unit if still within the warranty period.

I'd love an X30 High if I could afford/justify it! Good luck!
