If your choosing a laptop you must make certain trade offs, the Latitude D830 maximizes those trade offs to offer a powerful and fast laptop with great battery life and a big, easy to use display. The laptop is bigger than what I am used to, and probably close to 7or 8 lbs with the battery, but for a laptop with this size of screen, that is pretty much to be expected.

Battery life has been over 5 hours with a full charge. Dell support Isn't the best, but you should know that I'm reviewing the actual laptop here, not Dell support. I have not yet needed Dell tech support or warranty support. All in all this is a great laptop for the price and would recommend it to anyone. I had a d600 for two years and had no problems with it until the battery finally died. I bought a used battery off of ebay and it worked great up until I sold it for $200 plus shipping. Not bad because I bought it for $240.
