(+) Build Quality, Connection, Graphics, Keyboard, Webcam and Mic, Ease of Use, Speed, Quiet Running. (-) No graphics drivers for 64 bit operating system. No big deal. Hopefully soon they will have them
(+) Can take it into Best Buy for Geek Squad. This is convenient, because Best Buy has many locations. (-) Slow, keypad breaks easily, internet issues, overpriced.

The Dell M4300 is the laptop of choice for my company. The 4300 has proven to be a very stable laptop, but with stability comes size. They are somewhat bulky, but I feel it is a trade off worth making for the better performance over the smaller models. Also the added size gives room for a bigger battery which can last as much as 3 hours at times.
One thing that I do wish that was on the m4300 is a 12-in-1 card reader. I have found it a bit of a pain to not have this simple add-on, forcing me to carry a USB card reader along with me.
I would also opt for a larger hard drive than the 80GB, as well as 7200RPM over the 5400RPM. The 2GB of RAM has been plenty for all of my extensive computing needs.
Advantages: Good Graphics and Beautiful Design Disadvantages: its a dell laptop
...huh? a beautiful design from Dell worn by their Precision M4300. Not only does its exterior look smart but the graphics on this thing are amazing. Pumping away with a 512Mb graphics card from Nvidia makes this little beauty perfect for computer aided design and animation.
Specs (assuming your buying new from Dell):
Can bought with either Microsoft XP professional or Vista
Standard model has Intel dual core processor with speeds ranging from 1.8Ghz ... ...the lower end of the Dell specs scale but it was still very nifty. For the price you wouldn't really expect much less then what you get, but its still helpful. Though the graphics are extremely capable, i think any designers should at least consider this when they look for a new laptop, its not really one for entertainment, so *serious* gamers should consider looking elsewhere. Not that it wouldn't do for everyday entertainment,but if your looking ...

Runs Vista like a dream. Brilliant screen, familiar Dell keyboard layout.
Supports bitlocker whole drive encryption so can be used with sensitive data with less worry about the data theft.
Battery life is amazing. I have the high capacity battery plus drive bay battery and can go for most of a working day without being plugged in to the mains if i need to.
Only downside I've found is with Dell's QuickSet utilities which are a bit eager turning off network cards, but these can be disabled.
