15" (or thereabouts) 1080p laptop with BD

Hi all,

I'm trying to replace an old Dell XPS m1530, which I love but which is definitely coming to the end of its life. There are three main use-cases:
1) Both my wife and I use it for work on a regular basis, at home and away - mainly office applications, but some scripting and java from me;
2) We both use it for watching DVDs and BluRays at home and when on the move;
3) I occasionally use it for some gaming - not the bleeding edge, some fps (Modern Warfare is typical).

Ideally, my wife would like something a little smaller and lighter, but we both agree that the screen size is about right. We'd like to move up to 1080p for movie watching and productivity (although I'd happily play games on lower res). A BD reader is a must, writer would be preferable.

At the moment, the only two candidates are a Dell XPS 15 and a Sony Vaio (the VPC-SE2C, in fact). The Sony is currently in the lead due to its lighter weight and slimmer chassis (plus, it looks better!), but its a lower spec and I'm slightly wary about buying Sony (primarily because of reliability worries).

Frankly, I'd buy a MacBook in a heartbeat if they came with BD drive.

I'm largely brand-agnostic and I have a budget of around £2000, although there is some scope for flexibility as this will be a company purchase.

Cheers - Adam...
