    The Inspiron will never have great specs. They want people to upgrade to the higher-end systems.

    M14x.... its not really that slim, but its really their new small workhorse with big muscle.


    I really would like the 13Z as a "daily" computer. Who knows... maybe I will get one down the road to accompany my 17R
