Dell Vostro 1220 Review
By business laptop
The Vostro 1220 is a laptop designed for extra transportability for business professionals. It is 12 inches in size, lightweight, can run faster for data processing, and has an extended battery life. If it is to sit side by side with the Inspiron Mini 12, this can be more powerful with its Core 2 Duo processor. And with its design, it is more exiting and classy making it more likeable not only for small and medium range businessmen but also for the students. Moreover, it comes with a lesser price.
Starting from its power, the Intel Core 2 Duo processor is making it possible for this mini laptop to function in a fast and speedy process. It works with a 2.1GHz of 2GB of DDR2 RAM. Plus, a 160GB of hard drive, it can be functional for business operations. In fact, the Vostro 1220 is estimated to be seven times faster than the Inspiron Mini 12. Now this would clearly mean that any office applications and business software are so much accessible. Even browsing or surfing the net, it enables you to do multitasking. But if you’ll utilize this portable computing machine as a graphics or video editor, you need to have an extensive hard disk drive to accommodate heavy graphic files. Despite its high intensity of functionality, this high-powered mini business laptop is so efficient when it comes to its energy usage.
However, this new notebook has its downsides as well. As consumers would know it, its build is not that sturdy. There are other issues as well such as the bouncing-back of the keypads from the keyboard and the unnecessary noise from the chassis when in contact with the optical drive.
But if you are after the portability and functionality, this laptop is always a thumbs-up. Basically, it weighs at around 3.4lbs., light enough to be handheld even when in long minutes of walk from the client to the office. As this is designed for business purposes, it supports business oriented softwares that are very imperative for doing small business transactions.
Overall, this 12-inch business laptop can do more than what netbooks are expected to deliver. Aside from the features stated above, it also has the standard connections for notebooks and a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels. With this, it can satisfy your thirst in laptop functionality as well as your hunger with a notebook’s extreme portability. At a price starting from $799, you can own this notebook hassle-free.
