Understood. It seems so trivial, but that is a deal breaker for me as well.

I'm also thinking between these two. This one has 17' screen but one soldered ddr. The other one is 15' but ddr is upgradable.

Yep...I was looking to get 2 laptops for the kids for school and light gaming. I thing the one upgradable slot would be more than enough to get them by for a few years. For 2 though the Dell comes out to $140 less, plus the Amex offer so I guess the Dell would be the way to go.
