The XPS 17 X17L-2250SLV 17.3" Notebook Computer (Silver) from Dell features a sophisticated anodized aluminum design that exudes style. With the added power of a 2nd generation Intel Core i5 processor, this Dell notebook can replace your desktop computer while still being portable enough to take with you when you travel.
The 17.3" widescreen display is backlit with LED lamps, which brighten faster, use less power and provide better image quality than their CCFL counterparts. The screen also has a 16:9 aspect ratio, which is also the standard for HDTVs. The nVIDIA GeForce GT 550M graphics card with 1GB of dedicated memory provides a 1600 x 900 native resolution and supports HD 720p video playback.
The system is powered by a dual-core 2.5GHz Intel Core i5-2450M processor. It also has 6GB of DDR3 RAM, a 750GB 7200rpm hard drive, a multi-in-1 media card reader, a Blu-ray player/SuperMulti DVD burner combo optical drive, 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0+HS, an integrated 2.0-megapixel HD webcam and microphone as well as built-in JBL-certified stereo speakers.
