It looks like it will do the job!
I got my Dell Inspiron Mini netbook on Monday, but held meetings in the evening and did not open the box for a couple of days. I also read on the initiation process and I wanted to be ready for that. When I open the box, at first I was surprised (should not have been) in the absence of a disk of software of any kind. I handled a sample of this mini-laptop to a local dealer, so physically it was what I expected. And the box includes an AC power supply.Be prepared to spend 1-2 hours initialization software (depending on whether you create the rescue disk – recommended). The software process was very simple. Not being familiar with Windows 7, I followed the installation guide to the letter. By then, the battery should be close to fully charged (based on my limited experience).
It’s a sleek little machine. The keyboard is as nice as other reviewers have said. The screen is great for a netbook. I will not be used as a substitute for my 46 “HDTV to watch movies! What did I get it? Travel! I want something I can use on work and leisure that ( 1) gives me better access (in my BlackBerry) to the Internet and corporate / personal email on the road, and (2) a way to download and store – in multiple locations and different media the results of my -. Research family history (mainly digital photographs) Obviously I’ll know more after my first trip with it, but I think this mini will be just what I need, and at a fraction of the weight of the laptop I dragged along in the past!
Good netbook
I bought the netbook for travel and that’s exactly what I wanted. I agree that it is slow compared to my office (w / 4 gigs of ram), but it is much faster than an old laptop I have and that was to replace the netbook. He did it beautifully.I bought a USB optical drive for backup, and speakers to listen to Internet radio. The volume was sufficient if you are close to the netbook, but I used to listen from a distance, like a radio.
Also purchased a wireless mouse since I’m more comfortable with a touchpad mouse. All of these can be used with my other computers so that they are not related to netbook.
It hung on my wireless system without problems.
I hung my 42 ‘LCD TV and broadcast seamlessly Hulu, another surprise. It does stutter when I looked on the website White Collar USA. The picture does not fill the screen but it is excellent, even with White Collar. All that was needed to connect to my Visio was a VGA cable and a stereo cable. No other configuration was necessary. With a single concert and video on board, I did not expect to work as well as it did. (Also nice with the wireless mouse to control the netbook across the room.)
My guess is 2 gig ram for the video can help clear the site more White Collar, but I see no real need for additional ram at this point. Even with a transfer of the Win 7 Starter to something more robust. Starter is fine.
I did not remove any of the programs provided to date (which I usually do with a new computer to speed it up), but have no good reason. I have MS Office for small businesses and large works.
When the trial period ends for McAfee (still better than Norton) I’ll go through a general purge and replace, which I am sure will also speed up (my experience).
Overall, I am a very happy camper.
