i have got purple color, with win XP and 250 GB HDD...
i am using since april 10, and day by day i m loving it more and more, it has got all the features with excellent performance, best i liked is bluetooth, i was able to configure my mobile in seconds, then while working on dell mini, if any call comes, i am able to talk through dell mini only!!!, it means no need to search cellphone for receiving calls.
inbuilt microphone and speakers are fairly good...
excellent screen, keypad and mousepad are very comfertable and not to miss battery, its superbeb as i am able to surf, listen songs, watch movies for over 6 hrs without using power cable...
more and more you use it, more and more you will love it...
THANKS DELL... :)2 out of 2 users found this user opinion helpful.

Perfect for my needs!
by Mini1012User on August 28, 2011
Pros: Lightweight and small, but the keyboard is still large enough for touch typing. I've got the HD version, so I've got plenty of screen real estate. After upgrading to 2GB of RAM and an SSD, this feels every bit as responsive as a standard laptop. With the
Cons: The mouse pad takes some getting used to, and can act up at times. The black top is a fingerprint magnet...I plan on swapping this out with a white top (which will look asthetically better as well).
Summary: I use this as my main system, and will do everything I throw at it. Upgrade to 2GB RAM and an SSD, and this little netbook screams...with the added ...
Summary: I use this as my main system, and will do everything I throw at it. Upgrade to 2GB RAM and an SSD, and this little netbook screams...with the added bonus of NO mechanical moving parts! 100% silent!

A netbook that's simple and excellent for everyday use.
by ettezor on June 19, 2011
Pros: I've had this product for over a year and a half now and it still works(and feels) like new. I love it!
- The display is vivid and crisp, although it can be really hard to see when you're in sunlight whether you have the brightness all the way up or not.Cons: It can be a bit laggy when you try to run multiple programs at once (but that's because this was the only computer I had, so EVERYTHING was running). Other than that, there are absolutely no cons.

Very nice and size is perfect, get this one
by fargin99 on March 22, 2011
Pros: The size is awesome it's about 2lbs so very easy to use on plane or car. The screen is crisp and looks like any new computer today. Two usb ports with Bluetooth and Wifi that works like a charm. Windows works pretty good. Easy to type on the keyboard is
Cons: You get finger prints on the computer since it has a glossy casing that's little enyoing. Cpu is little slow so shutting the computer down or booting it up takes little long. Some times opening programs are little slow too.
Summary: This is a must buy if your looking for school work, every day computing, or your a road warrior and need a laptop but one that don't feel like ...
Summary: This is a must buy if your looking for school work, every day computing, or your a road warrior and need a laptop but one that don't feel like a brick to carry around. I looked at the ipad but it sucks since you can't use it as a regular computer. The Inspiron from Dell is well worth the 299 and it gives you all the computing powers you need if you can be patient with the slowness of the cpu. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for full computing power with out carrying around a brick or using and ipad that don't have flash and is not user friendly to type on.

Great battery life, lightweight
by erwinsantoso on June 11, 2010
Pros: Great battery life, lightweight, 3 USB ports, stream Netflix well, compact charger/adapter
Cons: Somewhat less responsive touchpad, screen is a little glary

Summary: I got the refurbished one from Dell outlet. The item is still in great condition and the price is really enticing. The unit is lightweight. Well, I'm used to the full blown laptop; so this netbook feels really light to me. The battery life is great; can stream Netflix for almost 8 hrs. Speaking of streaming: the wireless connection is sufficient to stream Netflix or Hulu. The charger/adapter is compact and lightweight.
The screen is glossy. Therefore, you shouldn't use this netbook with light from your back. The touchpad is somewhat irresponsive. This is probably because I'm used to regular mouse.
Overall, this is a good product.
