Pros: cheap, equal to desktop

Pros: Good Price, fast, crisp clear screen, nice styling
Cons: BIG case. Heavy

Cons: resolution problems, lack of connectivity, touchpad goes funky once in a while
One faithful day I awoke to the ring of my door bell. At the time I was groggy and I wasn't too aware of what was going on until I signed for a box. I realized that it was my laptop I ordered from Dell. I rip open the box like a pack of mad children on ...

by charolien , May 01 '03
Pros: CHEAP! Powerful notebook for those of us who can't afford to dish out two grand.

Decent Entry Level Laptop

by madprogrammer , Apr 16 '04
Pros: Fast Processor, Good Keyboard Layout, Excellent Screen. Excellent Battery.
Cons: Major Heat Issues, Bad Graphics for anything more than word processing.
I bought this laptop to upgrade from a aging Compaq 730US. What attracted me was the price, how could you resist a 800$ laptop with a Pentium4 2 Ghz CPU and an DVD drive. However I was unaware at the time of purchase that this notebook would not be good ...

What happened to the quality

by redvette , Sep 09 '04
Pros: Cheap. Good battery life.
Cons: Poor screen display. Cheap parts. Sparse software.
I purchased a Dell Inspiron back in March and although it is functional and does what it is supposed to do, it sure doesn't compare to my old Thinkpad. I have to admit I bought this on the cheap and really shouldn't complain as it only cost me $700 ...

by willsugg , Mar 02 '04
Pros: Exceptional value. Long battery life. Deferred 90 day payment.
Cons: HEAVY! This is not for those who will need to lug it around.
After using an IBM 600e for a couple of years, I wanted to move up to an IBM T20. The 600e crashed all the time with win98. After much research I found that the Dell 1100 Inspiron seemed to offer more for about the same as I could get a t20 on eBay (with ...
