We had a quick tour of one of the Dell Inspiron 17 laptops today and wanted to mention a few things about this laptop. For one thing the design is a bit more streamlined as well as lightweight which is really noticeable from the outset. This seems to be a theme which runs throughout many of the new laptops on the market today. This used to be part of an ever increasing higher end price point, but these days it is finding its way into the fast cheap laptops market as a welcome addition.
Upon a quick inspection of the specs we find that the Intel Core i3 and the Core i5 happen to be options at the time of purchase. These processors make for a good fast laptop which is at least for the moment pretty close to cutting edge speed wise in the consumer market. Of course there are several colors to choose from in addition to the various artistic designs which seem to find their way onto the Dell laptops. This is nice to have a wide selection of things that can offer at least the appearance of being a little bit unique, or at least not basic black or silver anyway. More on the detailed specifics will be addressed after our benchmarking results are completed.
