Search Amazon.com for Dell Vostro 1500 Laptop prices |
The Dell Vostro easily met every requirement. By customizing the base model, I was able to get the 2ghz (T7250) processor, with an NVIDIA 8400 video card for around $800.00. I could have opted for a faster processor with an Nvidia 8600 card and still came in under a thousand.
The system is very...
read full review »I recently needed to replace a desktop computer that was about 8 years old. I called Dell to ask about their new Vostro line of laptops as I routinely meet my clients at their home or office and it's nice for mobile computing. I also travel frequently so it allows me to stay in touch on the road.
Dell advised that the Vostro line was created for the small business owner. It comes complete with 4 USB ports, I believe a firewire connection, built in ethernet connect, wi-fi and was easily upgradeable to include added memory and a wireless N card. In short, it allows for on-the-go computing...

We finally gave in and purchased a laptop to replace our old desktop that was on it's last leg. The desktop was running so slowly I thought we were back on a dial-up service again. I was also transferring files between my house and a friend's that I was doing some work for. Now, with the laptop, I can bring it with me - so much easier and stress-free.
I am technically challenged and get the vapors even thinking about having to shop for anything technical. My husband found the Dell Vostro 1510 for me. I'm very happy with the size. The screen is big enough...
read full 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...
read full review »After 18 months, I can easily recommend this laptop. The graphics are clear, keyboard is a good size (though it intermittently has a problem with "lag" that Dell can't seem to figure out), the built-in Dell pre-N wireless card has performed consistently (though, I would suggest you get the optional Intel card instead to ensure connectivity accross the board), and overall response is good.
My machine has a 1.8gHZ Dual Core processor and I have upgraded it to 4GB of RAM (2GB worked well, but I am heavy on machines). I got the 512MB dedicated VRAM -- and connect it to projectors for presentations...
read full review »i have been using my Dell Vostro 1500 for a couple of years now. I use it for home and business use. I run a small non-profit and have used it with Quickbooks for our financials as well as for all microsoft word and microsoft excel documents. This laptop holds everything related to my non-profit. I also use it at home, my children use it frequently for everything from school work, computer games, DVD viewing etc... It has held up well. I wasn't real impressed with the battery life on this, did not last as long as I had expected. I carry it with me everywhere and must say that it is a little on...

What more could you want - well probably a lot if you are a heavy gamer, but otherwise this is basically the perfect package. Get a much or as little as you want.
I purchase and reccomend a lot of pc's and computer products. I am somewhat the local guru and the vostro is my newest favorite flavor. I had to really dig to find a new pc/laptop that could ordered with xp or xp pro - Vostro was my solution. Vista has so many problems I was almost reluctant to even purchase a PC or any type if it shipped pre-installed.
Plus with vostro I didn't have to spend hours removing unwanted trials and...

I use the Dell Vostro 1500 laptop for everything from web surfing to running statistics programs (in R). It runs everything successfully, even when multiple people are logged in. The screen is large enough to read and the keyboard is easy to use.
It can be a bit hot; I recommend using a laptop cooler to keep your lap (and the computer) cool. Also, the hibernate and stand by functions can be a bit quirky - it take a few seconds and it will not complete if you close the lid of the laptop before it is done.
I bought this computer because after 15 years from graduating high school, I decided that it was time that I went to college. I go to the University of Phoenix; online school and needed something to take with me if I was away from home and needed to submit my homework ontime. My little laptop now contains all of my homework assignments and I just love carrying it around.
