Dell Inspiron 1501, Turion X2 TL-60 (2.0GHz) 1GB DDR2, 9-cell Battery, Vista Home Premium, IGP 256MB... PC Notebook — 

I bought this laptop at Walmart. I own a Dell PC, so I knew I was getting a great computer. However, you get what you pay for. The laptop came with NOTHING loaded on it except windows. The box says it has Microsoft Works. Don't be fooled. That is the spreadsheet! I ended up having to buy MS Home and Student ($147), a protection software ($85), and then anything else I wanted to add. Luckily, I had CD's from my PC that I could load onto the laptop. I would have come out much cheaper ordering it from Dell.
