You Must Be Picky About What You Buy

by jean_bean , Sep 19 '00
Pros: Screen, Performance
Cons: Weight and Size
I bought this Dell laptop because I needed something new from my huge 200Mhz Desktop computer. My computer science classes require quite some time at a computer for programs, therefore decided a laptop would help me get some work done in between...

Replaces A Regular Desktop PC

by RayChen , May 24 '00
Pros: Fast, Easy, The Best
Cons: Heavy
The 7500 R500VT is possibly the best laptop ever. The speed of this laptop has surpassed all the others in speed. Also the battery lasts at 4.3 hours between charges and can hold 2 batteries at once for a longer usage. The hardrive can also get up to an...

Desktop replacement ?

by magiccrab , May 23 '00
Pros: The screen size and graphical performance
Cons: Size (but it is supposed to be a replacement desktop.
Well to start off, I’ve owned my Inspiron for about a month now and am thrilled with it. However some of the other reviews I’ve read about it have been slightly misleading about it. Many seem to argue that the price is ridiculous, saying that $3500 is...

Best laptop ever

by Desparato , May 03 '00
Pros: big clear screen, fast, quiet, big keyboard, two bays for hard drives, batteries, zip drive, etc
Cons: heavy, kinda big
This has to be the best laptop ever built. Though it carries a hefty price tag to get a really good one. The one I own has DVD, 650 MHz, 96 ram, 12 gigs , 8 MB AGP PCI 3D video and a 15" SXGA, this package costs around $3500. It behaves just like a...

The Inspiron is Inspiring!

by tke1081 , May 03 '00
Pros: Huge Screen, Zip Drive Available, Long Lasting Battery, DVD Available, CD/DVD drive and 3.5 floppy combo drive
Cons: Heavy and Bulky
The Dell Inspirion is an excellent laptop. I have been using an Inspiron for over a year now. I used a 7000 model from April 99 to October 99. The 7000 model is almost the same as the 7500. I have been using the 7500 since November of 99.

Not all that glitters is gold!

by nirmana , Apr 22 '00
Pros: Reliable manufacturer
Cons: Support desk/factory unreliable
This product has received great reviews - hence my reason for purchasing it. But within two weeks it was back with Dell Support. Basically Dell said the internal modem had become "loosened". Consequently, for some reason Dell Support wiped out...

Awsome Power

by Mrk1410 , Apr 12 '00
Pros: Great screen, keyboard, and CD-ROM
Cons: Heavy price, weight
With its 15 inch SXGA+ screen, 6X DVDROM, and full size keyboard; this notebook is the ultimate desktop replacement. I am particularly impressed with its video card and extremely bright screen. The notebook does get hot easily, and weighs about 10...

A Desktop Replacement (And Just As Heavy)

by DavidGriffiths , Mar 06 '00
Pros: Fast and powerful, excellent graphics adapter, big screen
Cons: Heavy, pricey, optimistic battery life, touchpad is no mouse-replacement
A couple of weeks ago, I was shipped a box the size of a 15 inch monitor, and just as heavy. Inside was my new work machine - a Dell Inspiron 7500.

Due to the amount of travel I now do, this laptop seems to be an excellent alternative to my...

A great but heavy machine

by dbsav , Feb 25 '00
Pros: High performance, sturdy
Cons: Heavy
This is by far the best laptop I have ever owned. The 15" display is wonderful - no need to hook up to a monitor. The machine is very fast and the 128MBs of RAM allows me to open a number of applications at the same time. I tend to take my laptop...

Though not for the frequent flier, the Inspiron 7500 makes good use of it's large size

by pyunker , Jan 10 '00
Pros: Huge display, 1400 x 1050 resolution, MegaBay, MediaBay
Cons: Not for the everyday traveler
Dell advertised the Inspiron 7500 Series as a powerful notebook that could actually replace your desktop PC. I'd surely agree with this statement after studying some speed, benchmark, capacity, and option information. But just as you wouldn't want to...
