Dell has added a new inexpensive notebook to its premium XPS product line just a few weeks after it introduced the new brand, and also will offer a desktop PC with backup technology, the company is expected to announce Wednesday.

The XPS M140 will become the second XPS notebook in Dell's arsenal when it starts shipping in November, said Sam Burd, director of client product marketing at Dell. It uses a 14.1-inch widescreen display, the first time Dell has offered that size display in a widescreen format, and weighs 5.5 pounds. At only $999 for the base configuration, the M140 is a low-cost entry point into Dell's new XPS category.
