    I was told by the associate in my local Best Buy this was a steal because it’s made by IBM and they have quality products. I regret listening to him. Laptop is slow on boot up, slow to open any apps, and the UI is confusing. I’m not impressed but because I need a laptop for Microsoft offfice I’m keeping it.

    My last computer crashed 24 hours before a Critical work download. Best Buy had this on sale, so far so good! It’s a little slow when working through Adobe video programs, but that could be internet/ video related. Always loved Dell products, would definitely recommend!!

    Decent Low-End Laptop

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    A serviceable low-end laptop. Good for just the basics, but don’t expect fast speeds or a great looking screen. Ideal viewing angle is very narrow and you will do some waiting opening programs or loading web pages. Still, has most modern features, but you get pretty much what you pay for.

    Dell produces a quality computer for those who enjoy a PC processor. I prefer Apple for computing but Dell offers a good range of moderately priced computers, and the Dell Inspiron fits into this description. Quality, good price, durability.
