Even the "stripped-down" version is awesome

by bgbie , Dec 13 '00
Pros: Design, speed, stability, included recovery disks
Cons: Price
Being a student, I was looking at the lower-end Dell laptops (Inspiron 3800 series). But because Dell plays so many pricing games, I was eventually able to get an Inspiron 5000e at a great price, with all of the features I wanted.

I shopped...

Pros: fast, great display
Cons: heavy to lug around
My wife got me a Dell Inspiron 5000e laptop for Christmas (great gift, huh!!) I have been nothing but satisfied with it since.

Pros: Reliability, Tech Support, Great Screen, Performance, Ease of Use
Cons: Only one USB port, some what heavy
I purchased this computer last October after doing a lot of research of laptops on the market. Dell has done a great job of manufacturing and supporting their laptops, and after reading all the reviews and looking at many computers first hand, I chose...

Hot Machine.

by svshootingstar , Jun 17 '01
Pros: Incredible screen! Well equipped & fast. Dell outlet is a great deal!
Cons: Shipped with one dead pixel. Limited choices of OS.
Mine is a P3-800 mhz powerhouse and the 15.1" UXGA screen is BEAUTIFUL. It'll display 1600x1200 but looks great set at 1280x1040. Searching the refurbished Dell Outlet pages of the Dell website, I found tons of Inspiron notebooks. The inventory...

Why didn't I get one a long time ago?

by jmoral , Jan 23 '01
Pros: Razor sharp display, fast, fairly lightweight
Cons: Pricey
I've held back on buying my own laptop for a long time now, relying instead on my multiple tower systems at home and using an employer-supplied "laptop" on business trips. I got so frustrated with my company laptop that I quit carrying it. "Give me an...

Great laptop

by ChrisHall79 , Nov 23 '00
Pros: Powerful, nice looking, good value.
Cons: Intel chips always drag great products down.
I purchased a Dell Inspiron 5000e because I wanted something else to play with. Ok, not the best reason to buy a $3,000 laptop, but a reason. Dell beat their estimated ship date by over a week. I bought a Gateway desktop system earlier in the year and...

Excellent choice for mobile desktop

by mflocco , Dec 03 '00
Pros: Display, portability, convenience
Cons: Possible service problems
I purchased my Dell Inspiron 5000e because I wanted to have a portable desktop. I travel fairly frequently and having all of my at-home files available to me was appealing.

There are many benefits to this laptop, therefore there are many...

Great laptop with some room for improvements

by hankshay , Oct 25 '02
Pros: Sleek business look/feel (none of that toy look). Good compatible components.
Cons: Some construction weaknesses. Some parts failed. No ethernet built in.
The Dell Inspiron 5000e was my second laptop computer purchase. My first purchase was a Compaq Presario configured similarly (minus $200). The compaq looks fairly good, and I could use the CD player without turning on the computer. The excitement...

- Pentium III 750Mhz SpeedStep Technology
- 192 MB RAM
- 20GB, 7200RPM Hard Drive
- ATI Rage Video Card, AGP 2x, 16MB Video...
