DELL Inspiron iM101z-3980BK Notebook Intel Core i3 330UM(1.20GHz) 11.6" 2GB Memory DDR3 1333 250GB HDD 5400rpm Intel HD Graphics

Pros: easy, good size

Cons: seems little hard to coordinate with apple devices for icloud

Other Thoughts: added additional memory chip at start

Pros: Got mine for $289 from NewEgg with the usual great service and fast shipping. Upgraded the ram to 8 GB like others. Keeping the hard drive for now. I really purchased this just to surf the web and watch videos from the internet when the wife is watching something I have no interest in. I also use this to control my telescope and camera when doing astrophotography. As others have already said. This beats the heck out of a tablet and it performs as stated. I hope Newegg will have more great deals like this in the future.

Cons: Absolutely none!

Pros: Great machine!! If you dont want to spend alot, but want a machine with good performance & you can upgrade so you can have for a while, then this is a great machine!!
Its small enough to take with you everywhere, but large enough that if you have fat fingers, like me, you can still type & work without constant clumsy accidents & frustrating squinting while looking at the screen. Fast processor, decent ram (I would upgrade), decent Hard drive (I would upgrade). Its a great machine for the price. Small, light, but packs a powerful bite! PLus if you need to work on the go for a while, it also has a 6 cell battery to keep you going!

Cons: Mostly DELL. No joke, when I went to the dell support page for some quick info on upgrading my laptop, the dell sit did not have my service tag in their system, as if my machine didnt exist. Worse is when I entered live chat the rep tried to convince me that my machine only had 1 GB DDR2 RAM installed & could only be upgraded to 2 GB!!! He then tried to tell me that my laptop had 6 RAM Slots!!! Why would it have 6 if I could only upgrade to 2 GB I will never know!! By the way it took me an hour & a half & i never got any useful info from dell!

The machine is great, just dont expect it to be a $1200 alienware PC for this price! Its great for on the go work, great to upgrade & keep alive for a while!

Not really a con considering the price, but the size of the HD & amount of RAM. Easy fix for under $100, still a great Notebook

Other Thoughts: I upgraded the RAM (4 GB) for about $13 through Newegg of course & a 750 GB hybird drive for $49.99 also through Newegg. This thing Purrrs!! start up is around 13 seconds, all apps start super quick, multitasks awesome!! Battery lasts forever (just kidding) I love the HDMI, the SRS could be a bit better, but not really a con since I dont really use it. The 4 eggs are mainly for DELL, I used to love them, but not so much anymore. You really shouldnt have any complaints considering the price.

Pros: Great for on the go

Cons: NOT enough storage

Pros: Very light and responsive. We like it.

Cons: so far so good.

Pros: Need to upgrade memory for faster.

Cons: I love this one. Need to upgrade memory for faster. I want to buy another one for my wife.

Pros: Decent processor and graphics after updating to latest Intel graphics driver.

Cons: Poor battery life with average daily use. Arrow keys are cramped. Screen viewing angles could be better.

Other Thoughts: Great value for $290, while it lasted. What I saved (compared to buying a more expensive computer) was used to upgrade RAM and add an SSD. Operating drive upgrade was easy thanks to design of chassis and case. Regrettably there was no trap door in the cover to make it that easy but the keyboard came off easily and the physical drive replacement took about 5 minutes. The upgraded perfomance is noticeable and worthwhile.

Pros: This laptop is inexpensive, very portable, has good battery life, and it does what I need it to do. I loaded it with 8GB of RAM right off the bat. The HDMI interface works well when I've used it. The camera works with Skype well enough, although I have a better external camera that I use regularly. Speakers are typical laptop speakers, but they work well enough. I like the full sized keyboard, it helps when I have to use it.

Cons: This is definitely not a gaming machine, if that's what you are looking for.

Other Thoughts: Good value

Pros: none

Cons: No pros when the unit fails and has to be shipped to MFG in 60 days.

Pros: Small, lightweight. Buy extra internal memory right off the bat. Computer runs much smoother with 4GB. Great for online use; watching videos, surfing the web, etc. Not very good for gaming; not fast enough. Tried FPS and was way too slow. Games that don't require so much processing (eg Limbo) work fine. Good for everyday use and travel.

Cons: Disconnects from the internet fairly often; not sure if its the laptop or the router. Small screen, but you can't have lightweight and have a 19" screen.

Other Thoughts: I would definitely recommend for someone looking for an everyday laptop.
