Advantages: Quiet, Good looking Disadvantages: Button under the dvd draw
After weeks of searching the internet for a new computer, I finally settled for the Dell Studio 540. I have owned this computer for a little over two months now, and have to say, that I am quite pleased with it?s performance. When it was delivered it was well packed, and all the glossy parts of the base unit were covered with protected covering, which takes a few moments to peel off. Everything was pre-installed so I didn?t need to use the enclosed windows vista operating disc, or drivers. Once I plugged it in, the first thing I noticed was how quite it was compared to my old pc, the first few seconds it?s just a wee bit loud, but even that is still quieter than my old pc, but it soon settles down to just a whisper.

Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Dell Studio 15
Advantages: reasonably priced, polite customer support Disadvantages: careless setup of drivers, very lousy laptop speakers!!
bought a studio 15 laptop...it was upgraded version so took them about 3 weeks to deliver
The bluetooth and BluRay drives weren't working properly...after many emails and fiddling around with laptop's screws and reformatting following email instructions then I got a call to sort out the bluray...it was finally sorted.
These were little probs that didn't bother me too much so I wasn't chasing Dell up daily, it did get sorted about 4 months later (after date of purchase). I think the laptop should have been tested and setup with updated drivers then I wouldn't have had this hassle and bad experience with an otherwise glitch free (so far...a year later!) system!!
Overall the customer service department were polite and did their best to be helpful.
I was asked to fill out a survery later so maybe they've improved their system ...
Advantages: Affordable, massive range of tools, accepts many Photoshop plugins, easy to learn Disadvantages: It's not Photoshop.
, however, to give a good feel for how well the software performs.
Installation of PSP X2 was very simple, with Corel's usual installation options offering either a simple install, or other value added products. Available from this menu is:
- simple install of PSP X2
- installation of VideoStudio 11 Trial
- installation of Nik Color Efex Pro Sample Filters
- Lynda.com Tutorials
- User Guide
Once loaded, the first thing that will strike users upgrading from previous versions of PSP is the swish new Graphite workspace. It doesn't suit all users, so the option to switch back to the Windows colour scheme based interface is available. I find the Graphite workspace most useful however, as it gives a much better contrast when working with photos.
My primary use of PSP is for digital photo editing, and PSP X2 has a whole host ...
