Great laptop. Should correct the description, it says it has a celeron dual core by default, but it really doesn't

This laptop works fine. But I tried to do a memory upgrade (adding more 2 Gb) and this was a nigthmare. There is not an easy access to it and to do so, you have to dismout the whole computer, in an operation that is very difficult. So, neither upgade is possible to do in this laptop without great knowleadge about laptop's maintenance and professional support. To see how this operation is difficult, you can see in youtube the memory upgrade on dell mini 10v that is the same way [...]

This PC is great if you want something inexpensive, lightweight, smaller, and mostly need to do web or browser based applications. It runs Windows 7, fast and smoothly. It comes with an MS Office trial ready to be licensed, by I opted to get [...] Office Suite which is free (asking donations) on the web. It works similarly to office, and any MS document can be imported or exported back to MS format quickly and easily.

If you have a decent internet download speed/rate, and a USB stick, there really is no need for a DVD/CD drive anymore. Anything you want to load on your PC can be downloaded or transferred, so I don't miss having the DVD drive at all.

I think this PC was a great buy. If you don't need a machine capable of designing the next generation space shuttle, then this might be the PC for you.

I returned this item. Processor is good for basic things but slow for multimedia work (celeron 1.3). Hinge is already loose on some angles. On the plus side it has a very nice form factor and runs windows 7 (64bit) smoothly.

I bought this over a week ago. This is my 3rd Dell laptop I have purchased since 2003. I don't think they make them to last too long. My previous Dell Inspiron 1525 screen cracked. After connecting it to an external monitor for a few weeks, I couldn't take it anymore. The cost to repair the monitor and upgrade the memory and hard drive would be the same as a new one. So I started researching a mini. My co-worker had recently bought a HP mini, so I looked at a few of those, but the ones I saw were much smaller than hers the 10.1 So I decided to purchase the one she had which is a 11.6 Unfortunately I couldn't afford it. So I went to the Dell website and found this one. Right before I was about to purchase it, I decided to check Amazon, to see if there was a difference in price. It definitely was, plus it was free shipping and I didn't have to wait until August 8th for delivery. I like this laptop. It comes with Excel and Word 2010 and Windows 7. The one on Dell's website came with Vista and less memory.

I really like this mini laptop. It's light in weight and I carry it around everywhere I go. The built in webcam is nice, but it has a small delay. I plan on purchasing the full version of Office 2010. I don't mind it not having a dvd drive, because I used my jump drive to transfer my files. I also can borrow an external drive too, so I'm fine with it. The lcd screen shows a beautiful picture and it's very clear. I recommend this laptop for anyone that wants to change up from the bulky ones, but don't want the minis. Also Amazon is awesome and the free and quick delivery rocks!
