A Bit of background first :

I am a regular user of Dell Latitude laptops and have used most iterations of the D series. They are brilliant corporate laptops!

Processing/Quality:

The Dell D410 is built for mobility and performance on the go. It is small and compact, just what you need for working on your project while sat on a train on the way to London. With 4 USB slots, headphone and microphone ports, ethernet port, Integrated WLAN and bluetooth this machine has everything you need.

Reliability

The only problem I have had with this machine is that the wireless stopped working after about 2 years. However Dell swiftly replaced the motherboard less than 24 hours after ringing to report the issue.

Ease of use:

The laptop is very portable and easy to use. The function keys allow you to switch on the WIFI and Bluetooth, change the volume, the brightness all sorts.

Battery Life

The battery life is not incredible but it is enough to do the jobs you need.

Features:

At release the machine had all the mod cons ; wifi, bluetooth etc. Now it could do with maybe an E-Sata port , Mobile broadband etc but for it's age it is good.

Summary: Good portable laptop.
