I got the M1710, Ive had it for over a year not, no prob' and nice and fast, nice hi res big screen etc.

Incidentaly it was significantly cheaper than the equivilent speced MAC, and at the time you couldnt get a mac with the same graphics card and screen resolution, it runs at 1920 X 1200 so its perfect for HD vid editing, it also came with a 3 year return to base warranty.

I think that hte new version the M1730 comes with dual cards and sits at about £1600
