    This laptop is a great purchase at an amazing price. I bought it then added 4gb more of RAM and an SSD. Really fast now.

    We got a deal on it, and my wife wanted a "new" computer because hers was slow. Told her you get what you pay for. Within a month it was slow, and all she did was load a handful of pictures on it. Not nearly enough though to bog it down as bad as it is.

    My last laptop was a HP, it was lame compared to my new Dell. It does all that I want it too. With speed and precision.

    While this laptop is not at the top to the performance list, it does everything I need to do, internet and normal applications, just fine. Speaker sound quality is good; build quality and display is good. I've had this for about a month now and have had no problems.

    It's nice but difficult to "click".

    It's a decent laptop, but I find that the "left and right" clicking area on the thumb pad are not marked or defined in any way and is not very easy to use. I've had to utilize a USB mouse to work with any speed.

    Just ok

    Just Ok. I was expecting better. I really dislike the mouse buttons in the mouse pad. Seem to never hit the exact spot needed to click button and they are loud/noisy even when you dont hit the exact spot. My 6 yr old dell studio has much better mouse pad and buttons and they are silent. Speed is fair...not too much improvement over my 6 yr old studio. Would not buy again.

    I needed a replacement lap quickly, and this fit the need. After a month or so, it is working fine with no problems. It's been a long time since I purchased a Dell, and I was a bit hesitant at first, but I wasn't looking to spend a lot of money. I'm pleased so far.

    Decent laptop overall

    It's a decent laptop overall but I don't like the way the touchpad reacts. I struggled with the touch pad reacting to my palms while typing causing the laptop to zoom way in or out. The palm rejection feature didn't seem to do anything regardless of how I set it so I finally turned the zoom feature off. It still attempts to scroll up or down slightly and occasionally changes tabs on me. Then on day 17 I discovered the disc reader didn't work properly. After a few trips to the store, where it would magically work again, it was determined that it likely had a bad connection and was sent for repairs. I'm waiting for it to get back now. On another note there should be a Maybe choice on the 'I would recommend this to a friend'.

    I purchased this laptop strictly for use when I am traveling or otherwise need to be out of the house waiting somewhere for an extended period of time. It is light, powers on quickly after the initial set up and works well. I would have prefered a backlit keyboard, and a SSD but you can't have everything, and the price I paid makes up for these minor inconveniences. The laptop works well for web browsing, email, word processing and would probably run some games well.
