Dell XPS One 24 Updates Graphics Card, Enlarges Screen, Fights AIDS

Dell has come out with an update to its XPS One computer system, making it generally bigger and more powerful than the previous iteration. The XPS One 24 now comes with a 24-inch 1080p display, JBL speakers and subwoofer, an Intel Core 2 quad core processor, and an NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT graphics card. A Vista Home Premium version starts at $1,699 and a Vista Ultimate begins pricing at $2,299. If you buy the (PRODUCT)RED version, you'll be donating either $50 or $80 (depending on configuration) to the fight against AIDS. Of course, you could also fight AIDS by donating directly to charities rather than engaging in feel-good consumerism, but then you'd actually be Red... you know, in that (shudder) distribution of wealth sense.

Dell and Microsoft See (Product) Red for Valentine's Day

If I've learned two things in life, it's that it's noble to jump on some bandwagons, and some things just look sexy in red. That's why I was pretty happy to see that Microsoft and Dell were joining the (Product) Red charity for global AIDS relief, and that for every one of the sweet new red XPS One's that are sold, $80 of the purchase will go directly toward buying 6 months of antiretroviral medication. If you buy a (Product) Red XPS M1530 or M1330, the donation is $50, and if you buy the red 948 all-in-one printer, somebody gets 10 days' worth of medication. Some of you are skeptical about this program—tell me, don't you think these numbers prove that (Product) Red is working? Jump for details and more Red-ified product pics. [Dell] More »
