My laptop, lasted for 4 years now, and I am more than satisfied to how it could still be in competitions with new launching laptops. The Specs were decent enough and the price is also moderate for medium class peoples like me. Thanks to dells built quality it went through storms and what not and is still alive and kicking. I would definitely suggest dell laptops over any other. At the first chance. If you have 20k bucks and want a laptop to last you long enough dells inspiron series is the best to get.
