Dell Latitude E6400

The Dell Latitude E6400 si not mine via choice. It is currrently the laptop that my office have provided me for use when working away or out of the office. I work as an engineer so it is important that I can use Microsoft office, access the internet to use a remote desktop linking my computer to the central drives sitting somehwere in a building in London , run some engineering design programs and use the laptop for a bit of entertainment when I'm stuck in the middle of nowhere on a site or holed up killing time in a hotel (minds out of the gutter please...by entertainment I mean DVDs and ... more

Having used the laptop for 3 weeks now, i have found it to be absolutely brilliant. I have had no issues whatsoever. The Centrino 2 works really well, the CPU speed if brilliant. So far the windows vista has worked really well.

The battery life is great (about 6 hours) and it is fairly portable, but a little clunky. It is a little loud. It can easily be thrown around a little with no worry.
