  • Reliable Computing Power on the Go

    Apr 04 '01
    Pros: Lightweight, highly functional, interchangeable drives.
    Cons: None come to mind

    Summary: Were the Borg a reality instead of a product of Gene Roddenberry’s imagination, I suspect I would have been willingly assimilated long ago just to have the latest in computer technology hard-wired into my head. Since that’s not possible, I have ... read more

  • I like my IBM Thinkpad 770z better

    Dec 16 '04
    Pros: fairly lightweight, good LCD
    Cons: hate the keyboard and mouse layout

    Summary: I absolutely hate the keyboard/mouse positioning and feel. I'm having problems with my battery not charging. Sometimes when I "Restart" with W2K, my machine shuts down instead or rebooting. At times when I reboot, I can't get the machine to ... read more

  • CPx, a lot of problems in 2 years time

    Mar 14 '03
    Pros: Good value for money as a second-hand laptop
    Cons: Quite big and heavy, a lot of problems after a couple of years

    Summary: Hello all, Continuing my reviews about Dell laptops, I’ve decided to write one about Latitude CPx. A laptop which looks at first glance quite powerful. It is a little bit old, but you might think there is a good value for money as a ... read more

  • I'll never buy Dell again...

    Aug 27 '02
    Pros: None
    Cons: keyboard, pointers, hard drive, service

    Summary: A long time ago, my HP 486 desktop was replaced with a Dell p120. After 2 days, I screamed for the HP back, and developed a bad opinion of Dell. Flash forward many years... My company took my Compaq laptop, and gave me a Dell ... read more

  • Decent Laptop

    Jul 26 '01
    Pros: Dual Pointing Devices, Removable Drives
    Cons: Durability

    Summary: This laptop was handed to me when I started a new job, and in the 13 months I've owned it, I have put a lot of hours of wear and tear on it. First off, while I love that it accommodates both Trackpoint users and Touchpad users, Dell really needs to take ... read more

  • Good corporate/power-user laptop

    Jun 12 '01
    Pros: Powerful, expandable, interchage-able parts, good quality/battery life
    Cons: None come to mind

    Summary: Gorgeous screen, varied options for interchange-able bays (include batteries, hard-drives, floppy, CD, DVD, CDRW, zip, Superdisk, more...). Accessories are also plentiful and of high-quality. Case is rugged & durable, plentiful ... read more

  • As rugged as a Lada

    Apr 25 '01
    Pros: Speed, Power Use
    Cons: Flimsy, heavy, win2k incompatible docking station, bad support, touchpad randomly clicks

    Summary: I've used this as my business laptop for about a year. I haven't treated it roughly - it's mostly stayed in the same place. Still, the thing is falling apart and I'm just counting the seconds till it won't boot up. The PC itself is fairly quick, but ... read more

  • My business laptop, which I would gladly switch...

    Mar 02 '01
    Pros: Lots of memory
    Cons: Sloooooow, heavy, poor design

    Summary: This was the laptop my company provided to me about 8 months ago. While I've had success with Dell's products in the past, this laptop is definitely an under-achiever. First, its slow. I'm sure this is due in part to the operating system I'm ... read more

  • Decent Laptop for price

    Feb 04 '01
    Pros: Modular CPx line, TV out, price quality tradeoff
    Cons: shoddy keyboard, buttons break

    Summary: Having worked with Dells at my previous employer, I was happy when I found that a Dell Latitude was one of the supported configurations at business school. I tote this sucker around with me everyday and it keeps working. This model came with ... read more

  • Not worth the money

    Jan 19 '01
    Pros: Small,compact.
    Cons: very slow for a pentium III. CD ROM problems

    Summary: I bought the Dell Latitude CPX as my first notebook computer and bought a Toshiba within two months to replace it. With a name like Dell you would think this to be a great system. At first I did too but soon found out how slow it was. The new Pentium ... read more

  • Awesome Power and Features

    Dec 15 '00
    Pros: Sleek Design, Speedy, Excellent Screen, Ease of use, Excellent Accesories, Great Battery Life.
    Cons: Price (hits the $3800 mark), Could be thinner as the IBM T20 or X series (about 4 pencils thick!!)

    Summary: I have the following specs: - Latitude CPxJ-650GT model - Mobile Pentium III-650MHz with Intel Speedstep Techonology - Integrated ATI Rage Mobility M1 AGP Video, with 8Meg Video RAM - 256MB RAM option - Integrated 12GB Hard ... read more

  • GREAT laptop

    Dec 02 '00
    Pros: hardware, support, features, compatibility
    Cons: touchpad sensitivity

    Summary: I've had one of these CPx's since last September (it's assigned to me by my work). Anyway, it's a great laptop. I've always been a pretty big fan of Dell from a business standpoint (they take care of you); but these Latitudes take the cake. ... read more

  • Quality

    Nov 28 '00
    Pros: Mobility, power, battery time
    Cons: Plugin accessories

    Summary: Quality is hard to find these days, but Dell has come through with a laptop that fit my budget and my needs nicely. As a student at the University of Texas a laptop is a major aide to my scholastic life. The Dell laptop has proved time and time again ... read more

  • Replace your desktop

    Oct 05 '00
    Pros: solid construction, multiple pointing devices
    Cons: large and heavy

    Summary: The Setup I have used a Dell Latitude CPx at work for the last couple of months. The machine that I was given to work with was a 650 Mhz model with 256 megs of RAM and an 18 gig hard drive. It was running Windows NT4 and has a Xircom 10/100 ... read more

  • Extremely dissatisfied

    Sep 24 '00
    Pros: It is fast
    Cons: Very unreliable

    Summary: I got my Dell Latitude CPxJ in August, and since then, it has been rebooting all by itself almost once every day. Dell had sent out a technician to my place... but to no avail. Barely a few minutes after he walked out, the laptop rebooted again even as I ... read more
