I've have a company Dell D430 for about 6 months now, and its by far the best laptop I've ever used. My commute is over an hour each way by train, so the built in 3G is a god send. The overall size... more

    4 Stars Nice light laptop, very clear screen 26/09/2007

    Advantages Advantages Light, good battery, fast

    Disadvantages Disadvantages not the cheapest, can be installed with trialware by Dell

The keyboard is full size, and it also provides a track pad as well as a 'nipple' for cursor control. Battery life isn't as good as the quoted manufacturer figures (is it ever?) but it last a good 3 1/2 hours or so with constant average usage ... more
