price range: $945.00
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 $930.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 unit comes with a 160GB hard disk and 2.0 GB of RAM.Features nVidia quadro NVS graphics with 256MB of video memory.
Pros: Has a 2.40 GHz CPU speed, which is faster than some similarly priced notebooks.By way of comparison, the average cost of a product with this speedy a CPU speed is $1,310.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 Studio XPS X1340-024B, a 4.9-pound notebook at around $900, has a 500GB hard drive.The poor battery performance of this laptop means it has to be recharged more frequently than other laptops in its class.
Suitability: A thin-and-light notebook, suited for business computing.If you have a wireless network at home, wirelessly browse the Internet from any room in your house with this Wi-Fi enabled notebook.Enjoy movies while in transit with this laptop's DVD player.Share photos with friends on dial-up modems: put them on a disc with the CD burner in this notebook.With 256MB of dedicated video RAM, this machine will do quite well compared to most other notebooks when it comes to multimedia applications and games.
Value: Overall, this notebook's features are as expected for this price.However, the average price of thin-and-light products with a comparable screen size is considerably 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) Using this PC's Firewire (1394) port, you can connect to many digital video camcorders and other equipment to rapidly upload data to the computer hard drive.
