An excellent value

by tomjones41 , Mar 14 '08
Pros: Best hardware configuration at this price point.
Cons: Battery life could be better, it's not built as sturdy as the more expensive Dells.
This laptop has been the recipient of some unfairly harsh reviews in the press and online. It is a budget laptop, no doubt about that. However, with a dual core processor and 2GB of RAM, this machine is more powerful than the desktops that many ...

Dell products are NOT as good as you expect

by cilluzzi , Apr 02 '08
Pros: Shipped directly to my door.
Cons: Everything else!
This is the second laptop I have purchased from Dell. I don't know why I did not learn my lesson the first time. This company makes themselves out to be so great. They are o.k. at best. Nothing special about this laptop at all. If anything I think its ...

I finally understand why everyone likes Dell

by sabella30 , Mar 18 '08
Pros: A great computer for the price and very sturdy.
Cons: A bit heavier than most laptops.
I really like this laptop and since it is my first, feel that I couldn't have chosen a better one. The price was great and since I chose the build your own computer option from the Dell website, I got everything I wanted and still paid only $800. This ...

Not bad for the price

by robinscampo , Jan 15 '08
Pros: Dells Customer support has come a long ways over the last couple of years

Dell...the worst customer service
