I owned a Studio XPS 1645 (the Core i7 model). The construction was pretty good for Dell, and the RGBLED screen was gorgeous. However, they clearly rushed the Core i7 version to market without testing power consumption effectively. The supplied power supply was 90W, and the machine drew something like 110W under load. I returned mine, but from what I hear, Dell replaced all of the power supplies. Not sure if that fixed the issue.
Although they made it right, that's the last time I'm going to buy a Dell -- particularly one built on the newest tech. I don't think the QA is there.
