A real monster.

The only downside – it’s a bit heavy (4.8 kg) – but it’s a laptop and gym all in one.

I agree with you, that Dell is reliable machine. My Latitude works very hard every day, however, it looks like Precision product line has very poor performance…

If you don’t mind the weight (the AC adapter is another 1+ kg.) and the battery life I would go for the XPS 1730.
