Our firm uses Vostro and I bought the Vostro 1500 Laptop for home use. It is a great bargain and allows you to order with Windows or Windows XP. Couldn't ask for a better laptop and Dell always stands behind its warranty. Can't go wrong with this one!

DUBelieve says "Dell Laptop is a great investment, especially for a student." about Dell Vostro 1500 Laptop

DUBelieve — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 12:29:03 GMT

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.

henryelijah says "A great laptop for home or small business use" about Dell Vostro 1500 Laptop

henryelijah — Fri, 28 Aug 2009 00:23:45 GMT

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 the heavy side. My shoulder feels it by the end of the day. The speed of this computer is still relatively fast and with basic care and regular clean up. I got my lap top for around $800 which I felt was a great deal and it has certainly been well worth the original price I paid. I would recommend this computer system for home or business.

jalong says "The Dell Vostro Laptop is below par." about Dell Vostro 1500 Laptop

jalong — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 16:31:11 GMT

I have had the experience of working on several Dell Vostro 1500 Laptops. I think the laptops are heavy and not clearly thought through when designing them. The keypad is very touchy and awkward.

Dell's are normally a pretty reliable computer, but I would stay clear of this laptop.

Computer suites my needs. Sometimes it boots up awkwardly and speekers could be a little louder. I got high resolution screen which I really appreciate.

proline says "The Vostro 1500 powerhouse on the go." about Dell Vostro 1500 Laptop

proline — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 14:28:07 GMT

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...

beebopper says "Light, comfortable Keyboard, fast" about Dell Vostro 1500 Laptop

beebopper — Mon, 04 May 2009 22:46:00 GMT

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 to read from comfortably. It is very thin and light-weight. I can fit it in my bag with my personal items and my paperwork and carry it everywhere.

The keyboard is very comfortable. I like the hand rest area. It supports my wrists and keeps me in a better position.

I had to adjust to using the touch-mouse pad. It is very sensitive and I can probably...

rjps says "The Dell Vostro 1500 is a solid, dependable laptop." about Dell Vostro 1500 Laptop

rjps — Sun, 03 May 2009 03:33:17 GMT

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.

Maceda says "Good, reasonably priced computer " about Dell Vostro 1500 Laptop

Maceda — Sun, 19 Apr 2009 15:54:07 GMT

I've had this computer for 18 months and it has performed well so far. the picture quality is great and it has survived some nasty falls. I typically use it at home because it is a bit heavy and cumbersome to bring on a crowded commuter train.

Dee101g says "Solid, serious laptop for business users" about Dell Vostro 1500 Laptop

Dee101g — Thu, 16 Apr 2009 13:55:09 GMT

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 all the time -- the NVidia card in it does a good job with dual monitor mode. A 7200prm hard drive option was not available at the time of purchase, but it would be nice.

One of the best things I've found is quick recharge of the battery.

Don't be surprised, this is not a notebook -- it's weight is consistent with laptops. It will respond with good, solid service, however, making a viable desktop...
