Product Description
The Dell Latitude D420 is a 12.1in ultra-portable notebook designed to succeed both the Latitude X1 and the Latitude D410. In an effort to simplify its ultra mobile product line Dell has merged several traits from each of these two retired models to create the new D420. Specifically the D420 adopts the X1's wide-aspect screen and ultra-low voltage processor while maintaining the D410's aesthetic appeal and full-sized keyboard. In addition the D420 continues Dell's trend of not including an internal optical drive although external options are once again available.
Dell Latitude D420 12" Laptop Core Duo 1.2Ghz 1GB RAM Reviews

I take it every day to college. And to get to my school, I commute in the crowded NY subway for 1 hour one-way! I also take it when I travel. So far it has been in London (UK), Moscow (Russia), and twice in Kiev (Ukraine).This computer is very thin and weights only 3 lb. It has the magnesium-alloy frame and high-quality plastic outer shell. It is really rugged and rigid - no flex whatsoever. It has withstood the beating very well - there are practically no marks or scratches after 2 years. My laptop came with Core Solo U1300 1.06GHz processor, 1.5GB of RAM, and Windows XP Pro. The system is very stable - never had any problems with it. I installed AVG antivirus, Windows Defender, and Win Patrol HIPS. With all this running, I am able to use MS Word 2007, MS Excel 2007, Firefox (several tabs open), and Media Player at the same time with relative ease. I usually surf Internet, watch YouTube...

She has a docking station at her desk so she can quickly disconnect and throw it in her backpack. Case is magnesium and built like a tank. Dual-core processor is an order of magnitude faster than the Atom in netbooks. Even with a 6-hour battery, whole thing weighs maybe 3.5 pounds. Great keyboard, too.Anyway, I loved the first unit so much, I bought a second one for myself, then a third for the wife. Great machines, and now you can easily find them for $250 on eBay or as refurbs. To me, WAY more sense than a netbook. You can get serious work done on this thing, and it's still small and light. 12 of 12 people found the following review helpful: Has been an excellent laptop, By Stephen Dake (Cambridge, WI United States) - See all my reviews This review is from: Dell Latitude D420 12" Laptop Core Duo 1.2Ghz 1GB RAM (Personal Computers) I have owned the D420 sinse 2006. I use it every single day for a couple hours on average and generally do not power it off between use. The screen is still bright and everything works as it did when new. I am a hard core computer user and have been for over 20 years and this was the 8th or 9th laptop that I have owned. So far, it has been by far the most reliable and longest lasting laptop for me. I bought two batteries when new and cycle between them. One has about a one hour charge and the other is about two, which is not bad at all considering the age.Obviously I cannot rate the actual used product that someone may be purchaseing on this forum, but for the product line in general, I have nothing but good to say for the Dell Latitude D420 - great product. |
