Earlier today I ordered 2 Dell XPS 1530’s.  The only color options available online from the Small & Medium Business side were Tuxedo Black & Midnight Blue.  The website for the Small & Medium Business side need to be updated to address the new colors.  Luckily my Inside Sales Rep was able to fix the order and I was able to purchase a pink one for my client after I came across this blog. Thanks Lionel for always sharing the new products available from dell.

While I completely understand the reasoning for adding the pink color, what baffles me is the lack of color choices available to the XPS line -- when compared to the Inpsirons.

 I personally have a Crimson Red color and love it -- but for a product that has been out for less than a year, to have such switching back & forth between colors is a little odd.  First, white was an option -- then it wasn't.  Then red/black were the only options ... and white would pop in from week to week.
 

Now this new blue color has been added -- and this pink.  All while at the same time Dell is charging more to get Red?  Because it is supposedly helping starving kids in Africa. Come on!

What about other colors, Dell proves that they can do it with the Inspiron lineup -- why not the XPS.  Green would be need, so would an off grey, slate color.  I love my red while I could still get it as a color option.

 I'll tell my girlfriend about the pink, I'm sure she'd just love it.
 

When will the M1330n return to the UK opensource page?

Good to hear that the pink is being introduced but why doen't Dell just make all the colours available to ALL countries immediately .

The extra charge for the Red Product is just being plain greedy....Mr Dell lead by example - donate $2 billion to africa, you can afford it.

Here's an idea, rather than focussing on how many different shades of colour the XPS M1330 can be bought in, it may be an idea to actually get the laptop working first! Hundreds of people are having massive problems with this laptop and the motherboard/GPU/graphics card drivers overall. See below:

Get your priorities straight Dell - You need to make sure the product is of merchantable quality first, then you can concentrate on dressing it up!
