Dell Inspiron 510m review

Tuesday 13 July 2004, 10:59 AM

Slow and LCD failed after 15 months


Good machine on paper (512MB RAM, 2.4GHz processor), but within months took minutes to start up and was running slowly (slower than four-year-old 128MB, 366MHz Compaq). The final straw was an LCD failure, so it is now relegated to the desktop with external screen. Our business has bought four, had several problems, and will not buy Dell again.
