    Slower than my OLD computer. Takes forever to log on and the cursor jumps everywhere. Can't type an email or anything without the cursor disappearing. I read the reviews, thought it was good, the salesperson said it was good. WRONG! what a waste of money. So disgusted

    After 5 months of use something came loose inside the charging port so it will no longer charge. Even though it has a one year warranty, BestBuy said it is not covered. Not only will I not buy another Dell, I am done with Best Buy.

    This will be my last Dell, I returned it for a different brand & it works way better. Dell used to be good but other brands have surpassed them in way better hardware. I'm done!

    This laptop lasted two and a half years before the motherboard broke. Waste of $500!! I will never in my life buy a Dell again! I had an Acer that I bought in 2009 and is still kicking just fine!

    The zoom on the screen jumps back and forth by its self and is frustrating to restore back to original screen. Also the right hand click often shows when the left hand click is used. Again very frustrating.

    $300 computer seems like a bargain. Machine ran okay, but the track pad for the mouse would freeze occasionally for 5-10 seconds at a time. It was a real pain. I ended up returning it and upgrading to an HP.

    Started do crazy things in less than a week. Support finally sent me the address to ship laptop to repair center. They say hard drive is bad. Do not have laptop yet so I hope it will last more than a week.
