Dell Inspiron™ E1505 (DNCWEA13) PC Notebook

Pros: Originally had great graphics, sound, picture, memory; lovely snap-on cover
Cons: Everything started breaking down within a few months; it's a Dell

Two years ago, when I decided that I really needed a laptop to use during an extended hospital stay, it seemed a logical choice for me to select Dell. Granted, my husband and I had experienced problems with Dell in the past, mostly with customer service ...

Pros: Runs Windows Vista great, nice sleek look
Cons: it may be a little bulky for some

I just recently bought this laptop through Dell.com two weeks ago with Windows Vista Premium pre-installed. Let me just say that it runs Windows Vista smoothly and without any lag. I would recommend that you format the laptop once you get it though, because Dell likes to add a whole bunch of free trials and offers that tend to get annoying and may even affect your computer's performance. CNET.com said in their review that the laptop did not perform well while running the new Windows OS. But if you look carefully, they compared it to other laptops running a different OS. I highly recommend this laptop for users wishing to run Windows Vista including the Aero feature.
