I've held back on buying my own laptop for a long time now, relying instead on my multiple tower systems at home and using an employer-supplied "laptop" on business trips. I got so frustrated with my company laptop that I quit carrying it. "Give me an...
Pros: Sleek business look/feel (none of that toy look). Good compatible components. Cons: Some construction weaknesses. Some parts failed. No ethernet built in.
The Dell Inspiron 5000e was my second laptop computer purchase. My first purchase was a Compaq Presario configured similarly (minus $200). The compaq looks fairly good, and I could use the CD player without turning on the computer. The excitement...
Pros: Display, portability, convenience Cons: Possible service problems
I purchased my Dell Inspiron 5000e because I wanted to have a portable desktop. I travel fairly frequently and having all of my at-home files available to me was appealing.
There are many benefits to this laptop, therefore there are many...
Pros: Powerful, nice looking, good value. Cons: Intel chips always drag great products down.
I purchased a Dell Inspiron 5000e because I wanted something else to play with. Ok, not the best reason to buy a $3,000 laptop, but a reason. Dell beat their estimated ship date by over a week. I bought a Gateway desktop system earlier in the year and...
Pros: Excellent Refurbished Price, High Quality Visual In Every Respect Cons: "Monitor Off" Power Saving Feature Gives Me Trouble - Can Be Disabled, Sound Capabilities Not As Advertised, Terrible Tech. Support
First I would like to highlight and be more specific about the specifications of the system I purchased:
- Pentium III 750Mhz SpeedStep Technology
- 192 MB RAM
- 20GB, 7200RPM Hard Drive
- ATI Rage Video Card, AGP 2x, 16MB Video...
Pros: Design, speed, stability, included recovery disks Cons: Price
Being a student, I was looking at the lower-end Dell laptops (Inspiron 3800 series). But because Dell plays so many pricing games, I was eventually able to get an Inspiron 5000e at a great price, with all of the features I wanted.
Pros: Incredible screen! Well equipped & fast. Dell outlet is a great deal! Cons: Shipped with one dead pixel. Limited choices of OS.
Mine is a P3-800 mhz powerhouse and the 15.1" UXGA screen is BEAUTIFUL. It'll display 1600x1200 but looks great set at 1280x1040. Searching the refurbished Dell Outlet pages of the Dell website, I found tons of Inspiron notebooks. The inventory...
Pros: Reliability, Tech Support, Great Screen, Performance, Ease of Use Cons: Only one USB port, some what heavy
I purchased this computer last October after doing a lot of research of laptops on the market. Dell has done a great job of manufacturing and supporting their laptops, and after reading all the reviews and looking at many computers first hand, I chose...
This laptop is great... This is the 5000e which is an upgrade from the 5000... They took out every bug and made this into a killer laptop... It is the laptop that I have bought for everyone in the company and suggested to a few friends...
