Pros: Lots of upgrades available, larger screen, fast processor Cons: HEAVY!, Battery life

Pros: brand name, quality, easy to use, fast, screen resolution Cons: can get expensive with available options, weight
Christmas 2002 came and as usual my mother made us write down what we wanted. It seems that no matter how we get, my mother still demands a list from us, or we dont get anything. She claims she never has any idea what to buy us because we have ...

Pros: Options Galore, up to 1.2 PIII-M processor, can replace many desktops, Eye-Popping Screen, Stylish Cons: Lack of current technology for PIII-M power features, price, weight, sound
The Inspiron 8000... oh wait, this is really a Inspiron 8100... Dell's new flagship model. I have constantly recommended Dell laptops to friends and colleagues and had a chance to play (well, teach my partner) about the new Inspiron 8100 laptop he...

What the he... okay. Epinions has posted a specific configuration for the popular Inspiron 8100 notebook computer for review when you have a general Inspiron 8100 category. This is getting stupid.
For the full dirt on the Inspiron 8100...

Pros: Fast, portable, lots of options, warranty, nice screen Cons: Puts a dent in your pocket/big investment (but worth it)
Dell Inspiron 8100
After lugging my desktop around with me from place to place, I had had enough with it’s size and weight. But making the change to a laptop was going to be a big investment.
My biggest worries? Laptops...

Pros: large screen, virtually ready out of the box, wireless net work available Cons: gets quite warm underneath after use
Okay, I didn't really flunk Computer Science in college, but it was certainly not my major either. Why do I tell you this? Primarily so you read my review as written by a pretty normal household user. I'm a mom, a stay-at-home one at that. I use...

Pros: Many positives- Speed, vivid details, portability. Cons: Minor negatives- speakers and the weight.
Without a doubt, the Dell Inspiron 8100 gets more use than any other computer at our household. I like to use it online to study the stock market, shop online, and explore the internet. I can take the laptop with me out into the sunroom or...

Pros: See SCADS below. Cons: See more SCADS below.
Both of us being as timely as someone who's not, officer and I decided that it was high time we offer our SCADS to the Epinions community. After all, the one and only reason we contribute to Epinions is to help consumers make better buying ...

Pros: Nice options, quiet. Cons: Too many to put here, read the list inside.
Dell should be ashamed of itself! The Dell Inspiron 8100 I received was an utter piece of junk. I've heard from friends on campus that you're really taking a 50/50 shot at getting a quality notebook from Dell when order one, and if you get a good one...

In the box
I received my Inspiron 8100 the first week of March 2002 almost a full week before Dell had promised it to me, with ground shipping, so they scored major bonus points right there. My family has owned Dells before, and the buying...

I am a college student and PC technician. I purchased my Dell Inspiron 8100 because I needed a laptop to bring to school and also to play games and stuff at home. I have always HATED laptops because they are often so much slower than desktop...

I was looking for a high-end portable for gaming and software development (I am a game programmer by trade). After reading as many reviews and user opinions as I could find, I decided on the Dell Inspiron 8100. I share my review as a thank-you for...

The amazing thing is that my company actually got some new laptops for loaning out to employees who travel on business.The Dell Inspiron 8100 is a breath of fresh air and we had better breathe all we can, because they will not be replaced for...

Another Dell story. Here's how mine went. My Dell 8100 just arrived last week and I wanted to test it out before I can make any comments on the quality of the device. The specs...
