"For the money?"

How much are you willing to spend?

Also, how important is weight?

I agree. The I6000 is a nice machine for the price.

I just got 30-35% off an Inspiron 700m. For the price it was an
insanely good deal and glad I got it. $2K got me a 4 year in home
warranty in addition to it coming fully loaded with a 2GHz P4, 80GB
hard drive, 512 RAM and DVD burner with a docking station and extra
battery. I did forget the free printer and MS Office Pro.
Incredible...

Dell 6000 keyboard is excellent - nice, crisp, well positioned, and
light enough touch to make typing a breeze. Definitely solid and
doesn't move or shake ala older Dell notebooks which had this 'problem'.

Recommended!

Most people have said the Dell Inspiron 6000 keyboard is quite firm, as
in you need to press hard to avoid typos. But after about a week of
use, it will get softer. Also, if you're looking to buy a Dell, there
are often man coupons available (check the regular coupon/bargain sites)
and you can get them configured for a lot less. i.e. the laptop
configured below would have been under $1000 w/the coupon I used.
