This was our second laptop. Our first was an IBM thinkpad which was a good solid performer. The dell is an excellent replacement for old IBM. The performance is all i will ever need . It has ample disk space and memory and ,when linked up to our 8mb broadband, it is plenty fast!!! The only downside that i have found when using it is that the control surface can be very very sensitive and sometimes results in you accidentally highlighting the whole page , when you are only trying to navigate your cursor. Overall though it is a very smart package and in my opinion is nice and compact and very sleek to look at . The "shiny" surface of the computer makes it look very modern although can be a pain to keep clean , especially if it is black like mine is. All in all i would thoroughly recommend this laptop.
