Seems okay to me. I'm not a big Dell fan but the XPS and Vostro lines seem to be alright. The video card seems a little on the week side but since you've got the 13" screen that's pretty normal too. I'd give it a thumbs up.

Yes, the video card is a bit weak. I could not find one on the Dell Outlet store that had the Dedicated Card so I just went with the 9400 M G. Like I said, I'm not going to be running Crysis on this thing.

It's a good enough card, I'm sure you'll be happy. Plus it won't kill your battery life like the higher end cards do.
