5 out of 5 stars Super-portable and lightening fast   April 1, 2008

I've owned many laptops and do computer support for my office, so after going though Sony, HP, and Compaq, I tried my first Dell laptop a couple of years ago - the Lattitude D820 which was a fast, durable, and dependable machine. My only complaint with that computer was its weight - over 6 pounds when you hauled it with the power supply. I was impressed with the fact that in contrast to my other laptops, the battery seemed to last forever and did not lose charging capacity over time. When I went to upgrade, I chose the M1330, sacrificing some screen area (15.4 vs 13.1) and resolution for a more portable package. The design on the 1330 is fantastic! The screen is brilliant and thin with bright LED backlighting. The resolution is perfect for the screen size, the brushed almunium and painted surfaces are crisp and clean. The XPS comes with dedicated and competent Dell support - I had a simple question which was quickly addressed by the support staff at Dell. Other cool features include an integrated remote control meant for controlling media, but which I use for frequent powerpoint presentations. Dell has also rolled out MediaDirect, a separate system which boots quickly to give you access to media and powerpoint presentations without booting into Vista. Integrated wireless and bluetooth works like a charm. I upgraded the memory to 4 gigabytes out of the box and have found the machine to be blazingly fast. I could not be more pleased.


5 out of 5 stars Too many superlatives, too little time   June 18, 2008

There's a poster in our school's "College and Career Center" that reads: "College is not a prize to be won, but a match to be made." I suppose the same goes for computing. The best laptop is not a super-expensive toy to feature, but--again--a match between the user and the product. In this case, the M1330 fit almost perfectly.

When I began my quest for a laptop, I wasn't in the market for some bank-busting dream system that ran at twenty petaflops a second. What I needed was a reasonably sized, reasonably priced machine that could still beat out my old computer: a Dell Dimension 3000 that had begun to show signs of age. After a day or two of searching, I chose this little computer called the Dell M1330: a fast, adjustable machine that featured everything I needed for a decent price.

I'm happy to report that this machine surpassed all of my expectations.

Where I do I start? The cosmetics side, perhaps. I ordered this Dell with a $150 LED screen; it bumped up the price tag, but for a good cause. The display is brighter than bright, sharper than sharp and lighter than the standard LCD. Moving on to the keyboard, I came across a brushed metal base that looks and performs admirably. In between the base and the screen sit eight touch-sensitive media buttons, notable for the subtle LED lights that come on as you adjust the volume or slide in a CD.

I'm happy to report, however, that the laptop's slim build (3/4 inch-thick keyboard, 1/4 inch-thick LED screen) does not compromise its external and internal features. Looking around the M1330's rim, I find an 8-in-one card slot, headphone and microphone jacks, a slot-loading optical drive, 2 USB drives, HDMI and firewall ports, a fingerprint reader that works, wireless switches, a nifty Media Remote that slides into the Expresscard slot and assorted internet, power and video plugs. The trip inside the computer is even more revealing. Where else could I find a 1.8 Gigahertz processor, 3 Gigs of RAM ($150 extra), and a 136 Gigabyte processor in such little space for such a small price? As I write this, Windows Vista, Firefox, Word, Adobe In-Design CS3 and Windows Movie Maker are all running on my desktop with almost no delay.

This may appear to be a long review, but I haven't said enough. If you're looking for a slim, yet feature-packed laptop with a reasonable price tag, I suggest you stop your search and pick up an M1330 of your own. You might just find yourself posting yet another 5-star rating on this review page.



5 out of 5 stars Best of the BEST   May 6, 2008

This Dell was by far the best computer I have so far (I went through 3 HP's). This is my first DEll and it is perfect. It is light and easy to use. I always wanted it customize -- this computer has already done it for me. I'm a short and petite person, therefore, carrying this laptop around campus was an easy breeze for me. Everything loads really fast --- including the new version of Windows Vista. The loading is like a blink of the eye. The web cam from dell is super good.. way better than HP. It even has a zoom features. The only thing I found complicated was the fingerprint reader -- it was hard to get your finger to read... after several attempts-- i gave up.. plus, I found it somewhat pointless to use if I have complicated issues with it. Anyways, before you purchase this laptop, make sure you shop around other various stores...
I have had this computer for 2 weeks now and I still feels new every time I use it. I'm even using it now to type this review.

I bought mine from BESTBUY for around $900-$1000 and including warranty to a total of 1288. Online might be a bit more expensive, but just look around for sales. :D
To prove how fast this computer was.... I tested the loading at the same time with my other HP laptop (all three) and Dell was by far the champion. :)



5 out of 5 stars "Cute, light, fast!"   July 21, 2008
Jerry Parks (Lexington, KY USA)

I'm not sure as to why this laptop is getting such mixed reviews. Mine is great! It's light, very fast, and with the LED back-lit screen, it has a magnificent display--right up there with Sony's best.

I would suggest the longer battery--even with the energy conserving LED back-light. The unit is quiet, and (in red) draws a lot of attention. If there's one complaint it might be that the display--hough bright--does not have the sharpest resolution. This is a minor issue unless you need the high-res for photos.

Overall, the appearance is elegant, the keyboard has gone to that 'metallic' feel, and I really have come to love the inserted DVD slot as opposed to the bay tray.

The WiFi finder is a nice touch too, and in my humble opinion, this is one of nicest laptops available for the price. Be SURE to get the optional LED back lighting.

I recently bought this item and I have to say... I am stunned. This thing is soo fast and soo sleek I am in love with it. I would pay 3000 dollars for this.
