Jbl Speakers For Laptop Questions

Is this a good price for the computer with the following specs?
I am thinking of purchasing a laptop. I looked at Newegg, Tigerdirect, Dell, and HP. I ended up building a XP 17 from the dell website. I’m not familiar enough with laptops to order parts and build it myself.
Here are the specs:
Intel® Core™ i5-480M (2.66GHz, 4Threads, turbo boost up to 2.93Ghz, 3M cache)
NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 435M 1GB graphics with Optimus
56 WHr 6-cell Lithium Ion Primary Battery
6GB Shared Dual Channel DDR3 Memory
500GB 7200 RPM SATA Hard Drive
8X Tray Load CD/DVD Burner (Dual Layer DVD+/-R Drive)
Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 1000 with Wireless Display Support
Silver Anodized Aluminum 17.3″ HD+ (900p) WLED Display with 2.0 MP webcam
1 Year Basic Service Plan
McAfee Security Center with VirusScan, Firewall, Spyware Removal, 15-Months
DataSafe 2.0 Online Backup 2GB for 1 year
JBL 2.1 Speakers with Waves Maxx Audio 3
The final price ended up being a little bit less than 1,100 USD including shipping and taxes.
I appreciate the help.
You could go out and build that for at least half the price. If you have the knowledge, go to Newegg, or any other site that sales PC parts and accessories, and build an incredible one for $1,100 instead of a mediocre one that is displayed here. If you want to build a PC, try to find a friend that you know or find a forum that will give you a great setup to buy, and then watch a video on how to construct it. It gets easier with each build.
New Dell XPS 17 3D Laptop and Alienware Comes to Market
For the first time, Dell is introducing a laptop with native support for 3D in both the display as well as the graphics card. The new 17-inch XPS 17 3D laptop is aimed at superior mobile entertainment with NVIDIA Nvision’s 3D glasses, which have to be bought separately though.
The XPS 17 with 3D display comes equipped with the NVIDIA GeForce GT-555M graphics card to provide the rendering muscle needed to generate stereoscopic 3D images at fast enough frame rates for HD quality playback. The laptop features NVIDIA’s 3DTV Play Software, which allows movie lovers and gamers to connect their XPS laptop to a compatible 3D HDTV and enjoy 3D Blu-ray disc playback or play PC games in 3D. The XPS 17 is powered by the latest Sandy Bridge iteration of Intel’s Core i7 processor.
It was shown at the CES that was held in Las Vegas, US, last month and the responses have been positive even though it has certain drawbacks regarding its ergonomics. It happens to be thicker and heavier than the smaller 15-inch XPS 15 but still the new XPS 17 is pretty thin and light for a 17-inch multimedia notebook with 3D capabilities. The JBL speakers are a good add on and complete the experience quite well. One thoughtful design feature is the design that makes the sound travel upwards towards the user instead of spreading outwards.
Dell has also recently made their ‘Dell Stage’ software available across their entire portfolio. This is the company’s proprietary solution for transferring media files and documents between multiple devices. So far the user reviews are quite neutral but it is a good value addition for customers buying in to the Dell family of devices.
The software also appears on the Inspiron duo convertible tablet. Stage uses a tile-based user interface that works on both touch screen and non-touch screen devices. Dell also has plans of adding the sync capability via software update to all Stage equipped devices later this year. This will enable photos, videos, music, documents and other files to be synchronized across Dell PCs, tablets and smartphones. Something similar to what iTunes does for Apple.
Dell’s Alienware team is now working on developing the next generation of its popular 17-inch gaming notebook. It is said that this third revision of the M17x or (M17x R3) raises the bar by using the latest Intel Core i7 quad-core processor technology from Intel’s Sandy Bridge platform and combining that with the NVIDIA GeForce 460M and a built-in 3D display.
Similarly the XPS 17 is also Dell’s first 3D notebook. The Alienware team promises this notebook has more than enough power to offer realistic, lifelike, mobile gameplay on the 17-inch display. Alienware’s 3D capable gaming device shall have a starting price of around £930. The new XPS 17 starts at £649 (all inclusive) on the Dell UK website.
The M17x shall have support for up to 32 GB of DDR3 system memory, optional 256 GB solid state drives, USB 3.0 ports, slot-loading optical drive, VGA, mini DisplayPort, and HDMI including wireless HDMI features as well.
