4.0 out of 5 stars Great mini to compete with HP & Acer!, February 7, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Dell Inspiron IM1018-AMZBLK 10.1-Inch Mini 10 Mobile Netbook (Black) (Personal Computers)
For starters, this mini is not better or worse then the HP mini. That's good news as it will save you some money. This performs as well as my Acer 10.1, but the battery life on the Dell is 3-5 hrs. Windows 7 starter is crap, to be honest but, what did you really expect for 250$. The Mini is perfect for what I purchased it for, surfing the web. I highly suggest removing the bloatware and use a fast browser like Firefox or Google Chrome. Internet explorer is really slow and this having only 1gb of ram is a killer. I have had this for 5 days now of heavy use and feel comfortable sharing my opinions. Hopefully this will help you decide if this is right for your needs.

Pros:
Cheap price & solid build.
Nice keyboard with no flex.
Power adapter plugs in on the rear.
Solid power supply input.
Tight usb ports x2
Decent gloss screen
Sound is ok for a mini ( 1 speaker right side on bottom )
Great WiFi
Trackpad is single finger... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars omg my everything computer, February 8, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Dell Inspiron IM1018-AMZBLK 10.1-Inch Mini 10 Mobile Netbook (Black) (Personal Computers)
this little computer is amazing, and at this price i suggest you buy now before people catch on to the deal and they sell out.
i am not computer savy, i bought this computer in order to write papers, surf the web, and skype with friends. It works great for all three!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
also i was hesitant to purchase at first because the quality of the webcam was very important to me but this webcam is crystal clear!!!!!!!!!!
in love with this computer.... 1 suggestion thou, along with your purchase of this netbook be sure to buy the external cd drive its only like 10-15 dollars and you will need it.
even with the external cd drive it is still way cheaper than all the other netbooks.

This review is from: Dell Inspiron IM1018-AMZBLK 10.1-Inch Mini 10 Mobile Netbook (Black) (Personal Computers)
I got this after reading several reviews that were very positive. I agree. This little notebook feels durable, works well, and will save me from lugging around a laptop everywhere I go. I was not disappointed with the "limited" versions of Office (only Word and Excel) and Windows (but I can't, or haven't figured out how to put up wallpaper). Regardless, it's a good little unit and worth the money. Wi-fi works well. Nice looking piano black finish. Camera looks good. Haven't tried Skype yet.

One reason I wanted this was to present PowerPoint presentations at meetings, but PowerPoint doesn't come with the limited version of Office. No problem. I just downloaded Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer from Microsoft for FREE, and it seems to work fine. I'm looking forward to a couple road trips with this.

UPDATE: AFter 3 days, Windows decided it needed to install some updates....12. That took 90 minutes. Eight hours later, as I tried to shut it down, it wanted to install 10... Read more
