I don’t really use computer games that much so would vista still be really slow?

It really sounds nice as far as the specs but I just wanna let you know how bad Vista is. It will slow your computer down so bad. Either try to get it with a different OS or install XP if you have or can get a copy…

Nice computer, but like said before, Vista really lags and moans. It will slow the computer [that should be fast] down a lot. Try and install XP, but good luck, I got a Release Candidate that expired July 1st and there is no way of installing XP again, it "cant install an older version of windows".

Vista home basic is bad, Vista home premium is much better !!

You should not get a Dell no matter what. That price is a total rip off. For a low quality computer that’s not worth anything, I wouldn’t pay more than $250 for it. You can get a high quality Toshiba laptop less than that. Why pay so much for a low quality computer when you can pay less for a high quality computer? You should get a Toshiba Satellite M65-S9092. I have one, and I am very pleased with it. I have had experiences with Dell, and I am very disappointed. Their computers are horrible, and if you call them, they don’t even know how to help you. How wierd is that? Horrible computers with horrible support? That’s not right. Why waste your time with a Dell when you can have a Toshiba? You can currently get a Toshiba Satellite M65-S9092 for $1,125. If you don’t believe me, and decide to get a Dell, after all of the advice I have given you, I will feel very sorry for you. You can’t say that I didn’t warn you. Enjoy your new laptop!
