Dell XPS15 R2 (L502) Thread

In that picture of the wireless card with the wires disconnected...what is the extra gray wire?? I only have the two, white and black, and this is partly because I didn't get the TV tuner but he has the TV tuner and both wires are connected to that and still has that extra gray wire??

Finally took the plunge on this! There's a pretty good sale going for EPP this weekend and the EPP $100 coupon stacks with the sale discounts so I ended up with around $530 off.

May I ask which coupon codes you used? I tried various configs, but I can't get anywhere near your savings because it won't let me stack during check out. Thanks!

It's all been already discussed, what he has and what is what

In the listing of deals, find "Premium Weekend Deals". then at checkout, click the link next to coupons to find the Coupon Corner PC Coupons, and in EPP there should be a $100 off coupon.

Yeah that's pretty much it. The key is that EPP sale that starts you with a $420 discount and already includes the 1080p screen.

I honestly was really surprised they let the coupon stack.

When I ordered my L501x thru my Georgetown student discount program it was essentially the same price as the normal consumer site, but it had all the upgrades (minus the screen, it was an additional $130) maxed out. So in the end same price, better components. And the 1080p screen and backlit KB were a tad bit cheaper thru my student discount than the normal page.
Plus they had a $100 EPP coupon they applied, so in the end it was a better deal going this route.

This was last Nov, no idea what student/EPP specials or discounts they run now.

I ordered the XPS 15, but when I check the order status there's a problem...
The "Bill To" area says "N/A" and so does the "Ship To" area...

This is the first time I'm ordering from Dell in like 8 years, so is this how it's supposed to be or is there something wrong?

SOLVED:
apparently this is normal... read another thread... thanks

No, nothing is wrong. Their order tracking is just sub-par.

Holy cr@p guys, thanks! This is just what I needed to push me over the edge. Now I just have to decide between the XPS17 w/ 3D. Thanks again!
