    • Product Rating: 3 star(s) HELP! FIGHTS BACK
      by bobbiesox, Aug. 1, 2008
    • Pros: Screen size is wonderful. Speed is great when working properly. Would love it if it preformed properly
    • Cons: Computer became very slow after the first week. Cursor fights back, actually jumps to the opposite side
    • Comments:
      This is my fifth Dell Computer. . . most likely my last. Reported the problems after the first two weeks, and decided to return the computer. Was told that there was a 20 day return policy. They did replace it with a second one that started out fine too. If I was an expert in computer repairs, and could build my own, I would probably be very happy with this one. I'm not, so I would love to return it to dell and get an XP, rather than this one...

      by Carla Thornton
    • Pros: Dual hard drives option, Fast 3D gaming
    • Cons: Pricey
    • Comments:
      A powerful laptop does not have to be a boring laptop. Take Dell's Inspiron 1720, a robust system that also happens to be available in seven colors besides black. The 1720 is a heavyish 17-inch notebook, but its multimedia design is outstanding. ...
