Well ive been configuring laptops for my mom who needs one to replace her desktop at work. she needs a laptop thats very capable of running powerpoint presentations, surfing the internet, doing some graphics design and checking email. her budget is capped at pretty much 1400 dollars. are these specs good for what she needs?
Inspiron 6000D
CPU: Intel® Pentium® M Processor 740 (1.73 GHz/2MB Cache/533MHz FSB)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP Professional
Display: 15.4 inch UltraSharp WSXGA+ LCD Panel
Memory: 1GB DDR2 SDRAM 2 Dimms
Video Card: 128MB DDR ATI's MOBILITY™ RADEON X300 PCI Express x16
HDD: 100GB
Drive: 8x CD/DVD burner (DVD+/-RW) with double-layer DVD+R write capability
Wireless Networking Card: Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200 Internal Wireless (802.11 b/g, 54Mbps)
Battery: 9-cell Lithium Ion Battery (80 WHr)
keep in mind that this system will NOT be playing games but im still wondering if the graphics card is powerful enough for powerpoints and such. this and a lot of other necesseties came out to just over 1300 dollars with one of the coupons on notebookforum.com
kinda need some advice fast as she wants to order this evening. thanks guys!
