Dell XPS M1210 Laptop — 

Dell XPS M1210 was good to start with portable compact laptop. But its price tag is not its worth. It is bit bulkier than counterparts in similar category. With 2gb of RAM and Windows Vista home premium its performance is not upto the mark. Its probably a bad strategy of Microsoft to force through Windows Vista to home users, which doesnt have much of takers. The screen normally burns out in 2 yrs time frame. The video graphic adapter (VGA) card which bundles comes doesnt offers a good output. Also, since its in build in board ita hrad to replace it. Mine laptop one day suddenly died. It didnt came up. After doing POST non power test and based on the LED error code display combinations, it seemed up it was video card error. Now, since the card is on board I am screwed. I cant do anything without changing the mother board. Had it been bit lighter, it would have been nice. Well at the same cost other would have been better
