Dell Inspiron 11z: Do More With Less

Weighing approximately 3 pounds and measuring just 1 inch thin, you'd never guess the slim and sleek Dell Inspiron 11z laptop would pack such a big punch. The nicely affordable Inspiron 11z boasts a high-definition 11.6-inch display and an Intel ultra-low-voltage processor that offers a good mix of multitasking with extended battery life--up to 6.7 hours. Other features include a near full-size keyboard, easy-to-use floating touchpad with concealed touch control, HDMI output for connecting to an HDTV, and an integrated 1.3-megapixel webcam with a built-in microphone for on-the-go video chats.

The Dell Inspiron 11z (in Obsidian Black) weighs just 3 pounds and features a high-definition 11.6-inch screen.

The USB port on the left side is powered, so your mobile phone will still charge even when the 11z is asleep.

The 11z also features an HDMI output for audio and video as well as a 3-in-1 memory card reader.

Pre-installed with the Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium operating system (64-bit version), you'll be able to easily create a home network and share all of your favorite photos, videos, and music. Windows 7 is the easiest, fastest, and most engaging version of Windows yet. Better ways to find and manage files, like Jump Lists and improved taskbar previews, help you speed through everyday tasks. Windows 7 is designed for faster and more reliable performance, so your PC just works the way you want it to.

Note: This laptop does not come with an integrated optical drive; you can connect an optional external drive via one of the netbook's USB ports.

4.0 out of 5 stars New Laptop, July 28, 2010

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!

4.0 out of 5 stars You Get What You Pay For, August 7, 2010

This review is from: Dell Inspiron i11z-3747OBK 11.6-inch Laptop (Obsidian Black) (Personal Computers)

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.

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 [...]
