Product Description
As one of the first of the mainstream computer manufacturers to develop a laptop around the new Intel Core Duo processor, Dell has much riding on the success of the new Inspiron 9400. The 1.66GHz Core Duo processor will either sink or swim in Dells mainstream portables depending upon its reception here. Matched with 1GB of PC2-5300 DDR2 that promises to run even the thirstiest applications with aplomb, the major yardstick is not whether Core Duo can keep pace with the Pentium M (Dothan), but whether it can perform without reducing battery life to minutes rather than hours. Yet having said that, it is easy to think that the Inspirons sole point of interest is the aforementioned CPU. You see, this is Dells attempt at an all-in-one laptop: a workhorse that sits as comfortably in office attire as it does in casuals. With fast-access email buttons, ample memory and a weight of 3.6kg, its a suitable office-based and on-the-go machine. Yet with Media Center bundled in, to give the control buttons at the foot of the casing something to do, and a 17in widescreen display, the Inspiron seems built for handling movies as comfortably as Excel spreadsheets. Visually, the arctic silver and white casing is an interesting reworking from Dell. The colour scheme and layout of the keyboard and tracker pad hint at a classiness that some might dismiss as tacky trend-chasing. But it actually works rather well, giving the screen a comfortable border in gentle silver rather than harsh black.

 Good performance, not reliable October 6, 2007

I have a E1705 with T7200, 7900GS, 1GB ram & XP with Vista disks.
The laptop started crashing to a blue screen after about 8-9 month use
and is crashing more and more frequently. NMI, memory parity error.
Dell is coming next week to replace my motherboard and GPU amd RAM.
The performance is very good in gaming, but reliablity is subpar.
Update: at 16 months, no display, Dell is going to replace motherbaord again. I have the 4 year on site warranty. Don't buy this laptop without the extended warranty.
overpriced for the quality August 8, 2007

I used to have toshiba laptops, so I decided to try with Dell, the computer looks good, but I think are not well configurated, almost all the time I have conflict problems with windows (I never have this problem with toshiba). The computer is made of cheap plastic, so you need to be very careful. When you call to Dell for help, it's very dificult to find the right person, so at the end I prefered pay for a technician. In the future I'm going to buy a toshiba again (definitly are better computers and better service).
