I bought this laptop very cheaply from PC world. It is amazing that it's so cheap considering it has a duo processor and is such good quality. If you're paying more for a laptop of this standard, you are probably paying for the brand name. This Dell is a simple and very elegant laptop which serves all my computing needs. Its wide screen is brilliant for watching films, (and the speaker's not bad either). The Inspiron also runs Windows Vista Home Premium, which I haven't had any problems with yet, and is a pleasure to use. Although I prefer using Macs, I have found this Dell quite easy to use and with pleasing features. The keyboard and track pad are of good quality and haven't shown signs of wearing yet, as many models do, after repeated and prolonged use. The model has also maintained smooth and slick design without compromising the laptop's wearability, and this is a significant advantage.
