I'm not a fan of Dell's because of bad reviews and bad customer support. My first three choices would be toshiba, sony vaio and hp. I had returned 2 toshiba M series because of the noisy fan issue, and a sony vaio due to irratic touchpad and lid issue. Later, This one came up here in amazon with a good price deal and packed with the features that I need. All I can say is, I am happy with my purchase.

Pros: fast, quiet, style, comfy keyboards (best if you have small hands), dedicatd playback keys, good speakers( way better than sony vaios but not greater than toshiba M series harman kardon's), bluetooth, 1.3 pixel webcam, good battery life, intel i3 processor, fairly light, good touchpad.

Cons: Very nice finish but.. (fingerprints and smudges welcome), so-so graphics (comparable to hp dm4, but better. If your doing some photo editing the results can be slightly unprecise or unaccurate.. well it's a laptop), no blu-ray, unlighted keyboard.

This laptop is fast and worth what we paid for it. The HD screen is crystal clear. Only downfall is that no backup disk for Windows 7 was included.

Tinny sound quality, for one thing
I haven't really had the computer long enough to rate it overall. It seems okay for what you want a laptop for. However, I still prefer my old Dell Inspiron 640M. Read more
