Oddly... yesterday I picked up a Lattitude CPX 650 mhz on the cheap in really good shape... The Lattitudes are also one of my favorites too as far as Dells go.

Other than the case on the XPS its been just fine and its a relatively fast laptop. I had an old Lattitude CPX P-3 500mhz and it was trusty until it fell over and the plastic hinge points broke. The flex cable was severed going to the display as a result when it was turned on. The display didn't crack or break.... just the hinge point and flex cable. I replaced all the broken parts and just ended up with nothing but a white screen when powered up so I figured it either wiped out the display electronics or the video card. Works ok with an external monitor though. I just tossed it into the dead laptop drawer in my shop at that point but I'll use the one I just picked up to sort out whats wrong with it as well... if I ever get time.
