Thoughts on new Dell laptop
I am looking into buying a new Inspiron 1720 for poker and college. I want the best computer for the lowest price (under $1800). What do you guys think?

Whats the weight on laptop? If your going to be traveling with it back and forth from school it's a PITA to lug around a 15 pound laptop

I hate my Dell. Would never buy again. HP, Compel, Asus - anything but a dell.
There should be a notebook review forum out there somewhere - I don't feel like searching, but that's where you should read up. Basically, [censored] Dell |

Re: Thoughts on new Dell laptop
I hate dell too... too heavy, [censored] dvd burner slow as hell, some programs don't run (wtf?), i have a inspiro 6400 and the area near the pad gets fugly after some use. I like the "cover" though. Batt doesn't last shizzle and it got like useless after 10 months. Support is bad, like really bad.
Im looking for a new laptop... |
