Dell's recently updated Studio 15 notebook looks to put the sting on other 15-inch laptops by offering an impressive selection of configurable parts without breaking the bank. There's just one problem: it's only available in Singapore. Bummer.

The Studio 15 comes configurable with an optional 15.6 LED HD (720p) backlit display with a 1366 x 768 resolution (15.4-inch 1280 x 800, 1440 x 900, and 1920 x 1200 displays also available) for high definition viewing, aided by ATI's 512 MB Mobility Radeon HD 4570 graphics. On the processor front, Intel's Core 2 Duo P8600 (2.4GHz, 3MB cache, 1066MHz frontside bus) comes standard, with CPU upgrade options ramping all the way to Intel's T9800 CPU (2.93GHz, 6MB cache, 1066MHz frontside bus).

Dell offers up to 4GB of DDR2-800 memory when paired with 32-bit Vista, and up to 8GB with 64-bit Vista. Up to a 500GB hard drive, optional integrated X-Fi sound, WiFi, and optional Blu-ray drive round out the feature-set.

A baseline config with an Intel P600 CPU, 3GB of DDR2 RAM, 250GB HDD, 512MB HD 4570, 8X DVD burner, and 15.6-inch 720p display starts at a very reasonable S$1600, which is about $1,050 in U.S. currency.
