I just customed an xps 702x on their site and it came to £1066 i did the exact configuation last month and it came to about £1227 with the 10% off, but it dosent have a pci slot so im looking for a firewire device before i go for it, and then i cant even see a firewire slot on the xps either.

Here the config
