I bought a Dell Inspiron 1545 in 2008. It has an Intel Core 2 Duo processor with a speed of 2.1Ghz which is really fast. 3GD RAM, 320HDD. I comes with 3 USD2 hubs, 1 DVD Drive and built-in mic and speaker. It supports WiFi and Bluetooth. The only thing about DELL is that you don’t get a laptop Bag free but you have to pay extra for the bag.
Otherwise the laptop is really fast and reliable. I had to replace the battery only after 5 years. Now my laptop is 9 years old. My Hard Disk crashed only a few months back. So I replaced it with a 320GB HDD which cost me only Rs.2500 and I am still using it. My battery back-up has gone down and will require replacement in the next few months. The battery will cost me around 2 grands.
I recently bought another Dell Inspiron series.
DELL is the BEST Brand. After all, its American. Hence best quality. Go for it and you will never regret.
