Read moreProduct brief
Description: This configuration of the Dell Latitude E6400 is a 4.4-pound, thin-and-light notebook computer.Compared to other thin-and-light notebooks on the market, it is very inexpensive at around $995.The 14.1 inch widescreen has a native resolution of 1280 x 800, which is fairly standard among notebooks.Runs on the Intel Core 2 Duo chip.This configuration comes with a 160GB hard drive and 2.0 GB of RAM.Features nVidia quadro NVS graphics with 256MB of video memory.
Pros: Has a 2.53 GHz CPU speed, which is somewhat faster than some similarly priced notebooks.In fact, the typical cost of a product with this speedy a CPU speed is $1,495.The built in Bluetooth connectivity will let you pair headphones or sync your mobile contacts.The External Serial ATA port (ESATA) will transfer data to an external hard drive much faster than USB 2.0.An anti-theft security tether can be fastened into the built-in lock slot.
Cons: Has only a 160GB hard drive, which is somewhat smaller than some similarly priced notebooks.For example, the Dell XPS M1330, a 4-pound notebook at around $1, 085, has a 500GB hard drive.The poor battery performance of this laptop means it has to be recharged more frequently than other notebooks in its class.
Suitability: Suited for those who want a balance between power and portability.If you have a wireless network at home, wirelessly browse the Internet from any room in your house with this Wi-Fi enabled laptop.Comes with a DVD player for watching movies.This computer also has a CD burner, allowing you to compile your own audio CDs or video CDs.With 256MB of dedicated video RAM, this machine will do a lot better than most other notebooks when it comes to multimedia applications and games.
Value: In view of its very inexpensive price, this notebook has good features for the money.For example, when it comes to screen size, the average price of thin-and-light products with a comparable screen size is quite a bit more -- right around $1,330.
Suggestions: (1) Given this device's Wi-Fi capability, you may want to get a wireless access point for your home, so that you can browse the Web more conveniently from any room.(2) To get the most out of this notebook's Bluetooth capability, you could have a Bluetooth-enabled headset, smartphone or other device, and be able to link it wirelessly to your computer within a range of 20-or-so feet inside the same room.
