    Good system for the cost, However I wish I had spent more to get a faster system (with at least 8MG Ram)

    The women who helped me suggested this computer over the cheaper one I was looking at. Still a good buy.

    I bought this computer to get my kid through 2 more years of high school. It is not very powerful, but can handle the typical stuff kids need to do for school (access school site and use google products). I purchased 4 GB of additional memory from another site to beef it up a bit as that was much more reasonable price then buying a different computer.

    I had a Dell Inspiron years ago and had lots of issues with it, so I was a bit hesitant in buying another one. But the price was so good, I couldn't pass it up! So glad I went with it - I love it! Can't complain about anything!

    Very good value for a laptop at this price point. Decent for most home users, power users are not going to be interested -- but, that is not the target audience for this computer. My only complaint (and it goes for all brands, not just this dell...) is that you must disassemble the laptop to upgrade the memory. Ahhh, the good ole days when you could remove one or two screws and upgrade memory / disk drive. All lower tier laptops today tend to have this inconvenience... But, for the price (two fifty) I'll deal with it...

    I brought this computer as a gift for my mum and she loves it. It was great value for money, very easy for her to use, and also has loads of storage space. Would definitely recommend this laptop especially for a 1st time user.

    I wanted to replace my netbook because it was very slow. After looking at netbooks and laptops, I decided a laptop would be a better choice. I liked the size of the netbook, but the laptop is very easy to use and it is faster.
