Dell Inspiron 600m Review
Dell Inspiron 600m
The Inspiron 600m is designed for motion, with long battery life and easy-to-carry style. It starts at just under 5 pounds and only 1.29 inches thin when closed. Integrated wireless connectivity is standard, with Intel Centrino Mobile Technology, so you can compute and stay connected anywhere, anytime where wireless access is available.Explosive ATITM MobilityTM RADEON 9000 graphics propel the 600m to a performance level coveted by students, small business owners, and mobile workers alike.
The Dell Inspiron 600m has poor battery life compared to the current crop of Pentium M notebooks. Its small 11.1V, 4,320mAh battery barely managed 3 hours. But the Dell Inspiron 600m is a compact notebook, and so long battery life can't really be expected.
The compacy Inspiron 600m represents an entirely new case design for Dell. Based on the mostly gray, 6.3-pound Inspiron 4150, the 600m comes in a sophisticated, 5.6-pound silver case made from a combination of strong magnesium alloy and aluminum. The case measures 1.3 by 12.4 by 10.1 inches.
Overall the Inspiron 600m is a a nice notebook, battery life is poor, and if you don't need a firewire port it's well worth considering.
