"best portable lappie"
Pros: true laptop, fast, light, long bat life, brillant screen, nice built & design
Cons: external optical
Summary: i have said it all, from built and design to performance, it is simply amazing. i have bought over 1 dozen dell inspiron, and never like the built quality of inspiron. this is my first latitude laptop. and it is very sturdy and very nice color matching too.
it is pretty fast with core duo 1.2, measured 1m 53s on super pi test. about the same as petium centrino mobile 2.0. web browsing and download and installation are very fast as well. 9 cell battery has 6 hours max.
i bought this laptop from dell outlet $801, features duo1.2/30gb hd/1.5g ram/cdrw/9cell bat/xp pro. it says scratched and dent on dell outlet, but when i received it, it is just like a brand new one, no sign of usage at all, let alone any scratch.
i had 2 dell 700m b4, and i have to say d420 are a better mobile option, the weight is 0.5lb less and height is 0.3 inch less.
this is the best buy for me this year.Updated
d420 look like a ibm thinkpad remade model
