'Pros Nearly full size keyboard'

'comfortable, large keyboard'

'reasonable starting price'

'Peak volume levels were enough to fill a small room, but if you plan on sharing a movie inside a dorm room, it might be wise to connect the laptop to a set of external surround speakers.'

'An HDMI port makes it simple to transfer high-quality audio and video to an HDTV, giving the laptop a second function as a Blu-ray movie player.'

'spectacular performance scores'

'great product'

'The Media Card Reader on this laptop makes it easy to transfer files from a digital camera, video camcorder, MP3 player or smart phone using SD cards, Memory Sticks and more.'

'the picture looked crisp and vibrant head on, but as soon as we dipped the lid forward the screen appeared washed out; when we tried watching from the side (as if we were part of a group crowded around the screen), the contrast was too low.'

'quality and good performance'

'Great keyboard..'

'With the 751h's slightly wider footprint, however, comes a wider touchpad (2.5 x 1.6 inches), which was a pleasant improvement over the D250's 2.0 x 1.5-inch pad.'

'Good battery life.'

'spectacular performance scores'

'Internally the design of the 11z is very friendly for users wanting to upgrade or replace components.'

'Overall system performs better than the standard netbook - more RAM, drive space and newer Intel graphics.'

'truly top notch laptop'

'It is important to say that the Inspiron 11z comes with Windows Vista SP1 Home Premium which is eligible for free upgrade to Windows 7 when released.'
