ok...i'm looking for a powerful laptop for about 70k......in india i can get only alienware M11x for that price...another option is the XPS 17x.......
Now,ALienware M17x is for about 74k if i get it from the states....what should i do??will it affect the warranty in any way??what's the catch??

P.S:i know about the difference in config of the indian and us version of alienware...i'm talking about the base version..:p

All or most laptops in general are cheaper in the US. You will get more for your money from there so I suggest you go with it.

However I am unaware of the warranty. I vaguely remember Dell offering 1yr Int'l warranty on its products and 3yrs local. Not sure. Check US website.

And you can use those awesome coupons they give in the US.

^^ Dell provides international warranty, so don't worry.
