Re: New Dell Laptop!
Yes, I received it yesterday actually! Ordered it Friday. Three days to my doorstep is pretty amazing to me (especially when two of those days are Saturday and Sunday).
The 320 GB is ridiculous! I don't think I'll ever fill it up. But the more the merrier, right? And you're right about the 80 gb being the best you could do before because that's what is in my old HP laptop and I barely filled it halfway.
And that's what I figured with the memory... 3 gb is way more than enough. Memory makes such a huge difference, I only have 1 gig in my old laptop.
This laptop flies like a dream. Vista is so smooth compared to my old laptop. Everything is instant compared to a constant lag.
The screen is also so bright and crisp.
Overall, I am very satisfied with my purchase. I would recommend Dell to anyone. |

| Great! Sounds like you are going to be happy with that notebook!
320gb is quite a nice hard drive for a notebook!
I know what you mean: my wife has a 3 year old Sony notebook with a 60gb drive, but she doesn't do any graphics, or store music on it, and still has plenty of drive space.
On the other hand, I do keep music on my laptop, as well as photos, etc., and tend to use up a lot more drive space if it is available (I've got a 160gb hard drive on mine)...but now days drive space on the computer is a little less critical, with so many inexpensive external drives available.
