Dell Vostro 1500 Laptop Review

What can I say about this machine that has not already been said?  These are the toughest, most reliable computers in the Dell line-up.  While this particular model is no longer available ( had for over a year now), it is still very current from a technological perspective and I suspect that the replacement models are just as useable.

The first thing I noticed was the Duo Core processor was able to handle several tasks at once with great ease.  I was editing video and visiting social networking sites while playing music on the Windows Media Player and all the while McAfee Security Center was running a complete system scan in the background.  There wasn't a hiccup across any of the applications.  It was remarkable!

With the weight this machine may not be for everyone.  I got the extended battery pack and have used it on occasion and I STILL get seven plus hours out of it.  My last notebook was smaller with a 4 hour battery (also a Dell) and the battery started to fade within one month. 

So if you have strong arms or if you just need a desktop replacement system, the Vostros have my vote of confidence.  As tough as my old Twinhead and as fast as any desktop out there on the market today.
