hello
I'm looking for office use laptop. I dont really know what to look for in a laptop so i need advices.
I have narrowed it down to:
Dell inspiron 2200
http://www1.ca.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/inspn_2200?c=ca&cs=CADHS1&l=en&s=dhs
the base model one, with this specs
Base Model Includes:
Intel® Celeron® M 360 (1.40 GHz, 400MHz FSB, 1MB L2 cache)
Microsoft® Windows® XP Home Edition
256MB Shared10 DDR SDRAM
14.1" XGA Display
30GB5 Ultra/ATA Hard Drive
Integrated Intel® Extreme 2 Graphics
8x DVD-ROM Drive
Starting at 6.02 lbs11
One year Limited Warranty4 and One year Mail-in Service
Base Model Includes
and
acer Aspire 3002
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16834115301#DetailSpecs
specs are in link.
Comparing the two, the inspiron 2200 is probably more reliable, and Dell would have better customer service. The Acer Aspire has better specs, mobile sempron 2800+, 40gigHD, cdrw/dvd combo, 15" xga, and imo looks cooler.
Dont know about battery life.
btw can someone confirm that the sempron 2800+ is of socket 754/939 cpu and not the socket A. This should make it faster than the celeron-M 1.4Ghz...right?
They cost pretty much exactly the same. Right now im leaning toward the Acer, unless you tell me otherwise.
let me know
thanks
