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 the Inspiron 5000e mainly because of the large & crisp screen and smaller form factor. I have be nothing but pleased with this laptop, and wondered why I haven't purchased one sooner. It is especially helpful with a small business, i.e. to show clients graphics, websites, logos, etc. while at a lunch meeting, business presentation, etc. I would recommend getting as large a hard drive as possible when ordering as todays programs eat up quite a bit of space and a laptops hard drive is more difficult, costly to replace later on.
