Advantages: Thin, light, tightly built
Disadvantages: Very poor screen that malkes this laptop useless.

Now I've had my dell inspiron 1520 for nearly a year ( i'm even writing this review using it!) and even though you can order it to your specification, this model wasn't changed much from the basic spec so it gives a good insight into standard etc. First off, upon ringing through ...
...order twice saying ''thats the dell inspiron in black with...'' I found this to be the most annoying thing as if it wasn't for the fact that it was this exact pc I wanted I would have at that point taken my business elsewhere. Its' not like I was asking for a lot of difficult unusual specs or extras - it was basic with a couple of simple things. My pc did take quite a while to arrive, due to them waiting on parts which I can understand so just a ... Read review
