Inspiron 9300 experiences

Archived from groups: alt.sys.pc-clone.dell (More info?)

I am considering a Wide screen, 17" laptop. Dell is one of the choices, but
I am looking at others. My challenge is that I can get a 9300, particularly
at the outlet, in the $1200 range and every other manufacturer I look at is
in the $1900 range.

So, even given my Dell bias , I'm leaning that way.

Any comments by users on the 9300? I realize they are just observations,
but they would be helpful.

Genuinely I love mine - the screen is fantastic - everything just works for
me!

go my 9300 just last week:

I got a 1.86Ghz
1GB Ram
100GB HDD
Nvidia GeForce go 6800 256MB


all in all it cost me 2500CHF (around 1700-1800$). I genuinely love
this machine, it runs just like a charm. I now run a dual-boot
environment with WinXP and Linux and both OS run perfectly so far. I
had some minor trouble with the internal wireless adapter (Intel
2200BG) but they got resolved once I switched to the older drivers.

All in all I'd say that this machine is well worth its money and I
just love the WUXGA resolution.
