| N2Deep's Full Review: Dell Inspiron 5000 R600LG |
I will say this for Dell notebooks, top notch quality and great service. I was searching for a new notebook that could handle my software design applications with ease and without a lot of hassle and waiting for it to compile programs that I had written. I scoured the web and the stores and finally I ran up on www.dell4me.com and found the one I needed. I contacted Dell that day and told them what I wanted and the service person, Sheryl, was more than helpful. I talked to her on Thursday and I had a sales contract on my doorstep before I went to work on Friday. The financing on the machine was smooth and effortless. While on the phone Sheryl recommended one of the better carrying cases, an anti-theft device and a UPS surge suppressor w/ phone hook ups for 100.00 dollars extra. I jumped on that deal and was content. I received my notebook 6 days later and began testing it with Microsoft SQL and writing database applications. The machine handled the chore well. While compiling one program I wanted to see how much it could handle so I started working on some java applets. The notebook churned out everything I asked of it. The notebook I ordered has a beautiful 15" screen, 6.4 gig hard drive, built in modem, 2 PCMCIA slots, 1 USB slot, docking station hookup, 128 megs of ram and DVD player. The processor is a 600 mhz Intel chip with Intel Speed Step technology which helps with the battery life. The features are just awesome. The notebook is great however the warranty is even better. I financed it for 3 years at 52 dollars a month and the warranty covers ALL 3 years with Dell paying shipping both ways.
