Great laptop. Everything I need and nothing I don't.

I really like this laptop. I'm not very knowledgable about computers, but I purchased this for college. I did get upgrades, but it's fast, and can hold more data than I can put on it. My husband has played computer games on it and wants to upgrade our desktop now, so I have to… read full review »

This computer was a hugh disappointment!!!!! This was our first computer purchase for ourselves. It is not worth the high price we paid for the headache it has caused. We felt Dell was a very reputable company, that's not the case anymore. After about 2 months of use the… read full review »

It's a great laptop.

This is a great laptop. I would recom.mend it to anyone. I have used it for work for a year now and find it very easy to access my email on it, view everything on it because it has a nice, big screen and it is a good computer overall. Great machine. Don't know what else I can say about it, but that I would recommend it to my own children. It's good for kids that are julst goint away to colege now, it's a good machine for much older people because it is easy to manuever around the keyboard, etc. The price is right. I bought mine from the Dell store nearby where I live for $750, which I… read full review »

I bought this laptop from QVC i n May when it was the Special of the Day. It came with a case, a package of programs, and a skin to decorate the laptop with that had to be ordered. It also has all the cords that are necessary to connect this laptop to another computer and download from it. The software for transferring programs from other computer is also included. The operating system is Microsoft Vista. — My other computer, a desktop, has Microsoft Windows XP as an operating system. There is a learning curve to being comfortable using Vista.

I went back to college after being in the workforce for a while. This was challenging enough. Between my teaching job, and taking night classes, I found that it was even more challenging trying to take my work for both from one place to another and depend on the computer at work or school being available, working correctly, etc. Not to mention being able to get to my computer at home with teenagers around. In November of last year, I ordered my Dell after much research. I found the best deal and added the Vista Ultimate upgrade. My Dell has made my life so… read full review »

This is my first laptop, and I love it. I bought a new Dell desktop in Feb., and I was really torn because I couldn't decide which to get, so a few months later, I bought a laptop, too. I am no longer limited to sitting in my office on the computer all day and night, I can sit on the couch or at the kitchen table and do other things that I need to be doing. It's been very freeing. I also take it to work with me, and that makes it a lot easier to work on projects, because I already have everything I need at my fingertips. My husband is not very computer literate and was wary of using it,… read full review »

I find the Dell Inspiron 1501 to be the perefect gift for my wife. She has been using a Compaq laptop for over five years and needed to upgrade. The technological advances in the last few years have made laptops less expensive then ever. The Dell incorporates wireless technology so she can sit in the recliner while accessing online accounts, doing the online gaming she loves, and Instant Messaging with my mother, who lives on the West Coast. All from our living room in Ohio! — The Dell also comes with a built-in slot for an SD memory card. Now she can upload the latest pictures… read full review »

My husband and I both got one of these computers for Christmas and they are great. I have online classes and I have plenty of space to store my assignments and pictures and whatever else I want. I am very happy with the performance of this product. It came with Windows Vista and it works great. easy to understand and with 'internet protected mode' on, it will ask before it downloads anything. Which is great because my last computer had a virus that was pretty much impssible to get off. I have the weather on my desktop and I can search from the desktop with Google Desktop. I have yet to… read full review »

The components of this computer break down easily.

The components of this computer break down after about 2 years of ownership. I suggest everyone get a warentee with the purchase of a dell that is longer than 2 years. My computer screen's hinges are broken and the battery dies after 30 min. of being unplugged. Also, the RAM and drive memory aren't the best in the world, especially if you are trying to operate programs such as photoshop or autocad. — — The computer has nice speakers, unlike most laptops. And has a function to control the volume, play button, stop, previous, next, pause, ext, from the exterior of… read full review »

Buy me at the Dell Outlet NOW!!!

This is the best value anywhere when purchased through the Dell Outlet. I routinely buy these systems with the works - including a 3 yr warranty for about one thousand dollars. PC's are half price. For that price I get a dual core, 2 GhZ AMD or Intel, 2 GB of memory and a large fast drive. They work great, look great and last - with one exception. Just like every vendor out there, they buy parts from everywhere and the one part that stands the most chance of dying is the drive. Some models come with Toshiba hard drives and in my experience, they last about a year. Other than that - the system… read full review »

My daughter wanted to trade her more expensive laptop for mine

I bought this computer for e-mail, gaming, and most of all because I am a church secretary. Also, I homeschool my daughter, so I do research. I am not very computer savvy, but this computer is very easy to use. I have had no problems at all with it. One thing I changed when ordering it from Dell was the Vista programing that usually comes on this computer. You can choose to have Windows XP installed instead. I have friends that have problems with Vista so I did not want to experience that. My daughter has a more expensive Dell laptop and she… read full review »

I bought this computer last year. I am very pleased with it. The only thing I have problems with is that when I am in a seminar for college it doesn't like to type very well. I don't know if it is the computer or the internet. This has a real nice screen and very nice laptop. I bought my sister one and she really like it as well. If I have problems Dell support is always there to help. I would by a Dell computer again. It is nice and I take it with me when I go on vacation and sometimes to work when I am running late on my assignments for… read full review »

Big and heavy laptop.

NOV

This was my first laptop and when I got it I did not know what to expect. I usually buy HP products but heard great things about Dell products. When I got it, it was very heavy and big. It is thick, wide and long. The battery life is very short so I have to keep it plugged up all the time. Dell also put so many uneeded programs on here that it slows it down. Start up is also slow. The good things are that it comes with 5 usb ports, dvd and cd drive and the screen is wide and has good quality of picture. The sound doesn't go that high either. Overall, I do not think this is a good… read full review »
