1.0 out of 5 stars A Hot Product -- and That's Not Meant to be a Compliment, March 17, 2006

By	James Choma - See all my reviews

Run, my friends, run from Dell's line of laptop computers. I've owned two of them -- one from the Latitude series and another from the Inspiron series. They've all had the same problems -- motherboard issues. As you may or may not know, motherboards are expensive, and in my case, the motherboard went TWICE in each computer.

My usage was light -- simply for business applications -- no gaming, no mega streaming audio or video -- just applications. And I see in the case of this model that you're getting 256 MB RAM -- you'll need at least 512 MB, or your computer will crawl between applications.

I know laptops will run hot -- but Dell laptops seem to run exceptionally hot. So hot that I had to park mine in front of an open window in January to cool down after 30 minutes of use. Perhaps this is why the motherboards in so many of their units bite the dust.

I've been twice disappointed with Dell products. As you can tell from the ratings on the Dell computers that show up here on Amazon, users don't have a very high opinion of them. And I won't get started on the whole Dell customer service aspect. It's well known that it's abysmal at best.

After the second laptop motherboard issue, I've learned my lesson -- and it cost me quite a few dollars. Hopefully they go back to the drawing board and redesign these things. Just be wary when purchasing a Dell product.

These latitude laptops are workhorses, I use 1 at work and it just kicks butt, also 3 of my family members own the same model and everybody is really happy. Laptop is not heavy slim model and very very durable. Overall a 5 out of 5.

5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT LAPTOP, VERY FAST AND LIGHT, July 31, 2005

By	A. Russkikh - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I use the same laptop at work, it is very fast and works great for just about anything, the floppy is swappable with the cd-drive, the laptop is not heavy and pretty slim. I think for the money thi is the best laptop available. Internet just flies on it and I play a lot of online games on it and it work flawlessly.
