New Inspiron 1420 Pics!

I opted out of posting in the older 1420 picture threads so you all wouldn't have to search through them to find these. Feel free to ask questions.









It's Midnight Blue...and definitely does not really look as dirty.



The small smudge here came off easily.





























The next picture featuring a Poke'ball, a Zephyrhills watter bottle, a mini Tampa Bay Devil Rays helmet, a mini UCF mascot Knightro, and Oakley Half Jacket sunglasses was taken by the Integrated 2.0mp Web Cam on the 1420.



And as an added bonus...MY NEW CAR THAT I GOT THE SAME DAY (7/13/07) AS THE LAPTOP! 2007 TOYOTA COROLLA SPORT! If only I got the Ruby Red to match... Yes I am very spoiled...just turned 18.

 

Awesome dude!! Hopefully I get mine today yet. What is your screen resolution?

 

Hey, you go to UCF! I went there too

 

I got the 1440x900 resolution.

 

Haha, I just god a new car too. Actually, its a 1979 Mustang, yellow with racing stripes in mint condition. The previous owner was 60 years old when she bought it and obviously it didn't get much use. 39k miles.

I, too, will post a inpiron+car pictures once my 1520 comes through the door.

 

very nice car

sorry for ot

 

Awesome, wheels and laptop.

 

Coincidentally, I am also getting a new car and 1420 at around the same time. Ordered my 1420 yesterday, and will hopefully be picking up an Acura TL within the next couple of days.

 

Mmmmm the TL.

Sorry, that was a little off topic.

The the OP - You could've been like the Dell commercials if you had of gotten the red lid. Driving around in your car with a matching laptop.

This is not meant to endorse using a computer while driveing - probably a bad idea overall.

 

I can't help, but to notice the "shaking" of the camera while taking the pics. You must have been really excited

 

Thanks for sharing. I cant wait for mine...

 

Did you get any version of office with your 1420? Does it come with reinstall discs? How much sooner did it ship than the original date? I recently ordered a 1420 and am very excited.

 

Wow did Dell send you the car as an upgrade for your order?

Regarding the Office question, no Office software is supposed to come with the system, if that's what you mean. You can purchase it no doubt, but it won't really be much of a discount. In that case, Del better provice the CD..haha.

I'll save you some time and money and refer you to ebay to get the Office 2007 disc cheaper. The Home version with Powerpoint, Excel and Word is $150.

 

I choose "No Productivity Software" when ordering my 1420 since I already have Microsoft Office 2007. It shipped July 12th and received it the following day (next day shipping). The estimated shipping date was July 21st.

 

When we ordered Office 2003 with my girl's e1505 it shipped separately and was retail boxed.

 

The car looks more cool than the new inspiron.

 

geez it seems like every new corolla in my area i see is red

 

hey, same car and (prolly gonna be) same laptop!

 

Everyones got a new corolla! lol

That 1420 looks sweet - best pics I've seen so far, it makes the interior shell look really high quality.

 

Don't tell me it's a transformer..

 

saweeeeeeeeeet pics!! Thank you for posting a ton of 'em!! '

BTW, I went to UCF for a couple semesters, then transferred out of there Despite transferring I still love UCF, go knights

EDIT: I'm surprised at the quality of picture the integrated webcam put out. Better than I thought it would be! Thats always a plus!!!
Alright, i'm staring at your computer daydreaming about mine JEALOUS!!!

When did you order your 1420??? How long was the total wait time?

 

Can you take more pics of the screen?

 

i ordered 6/29 and received it 7/13 it shipped on 7/12.

 

hmmm.. i see you're in FLA.. how about sending it my way (Miami, FL) for the week. I'll get it back to you lol

 

Hah! lol. That transformers movie was pretty sweet... although I couldn't stop looking at Megan Fox...

 

I go to ucf and ordered a 1420, but now i am having second thoughts having to carry it with 3 big books next semester. your pics really make me want mine, but I am thinking it is too big and that i need something more macbook size.

 

i realy should have bought a 1420 instead of the 1520, i hate the media buttons on the front of the 1520. the 1420 looks much cleaner/nicer.

 

question about your keyboard... does it feel flimsy or is the build of it pretty good? In fact, how is the total build of the computer? Does it seem like it could break easily?

 

It is not in any way flimsy. This thing is bulletproof. In my opinion. But don't ask me to try shooting it. Although, I do have Complete Care. Hm...

 

lol. thanks for letting me know!

 

same here, I forgot how many times I loaded the media player by accident because I hit the MediaDirect button at the front. inadvertently.

 

Can you please take more pics of the screen? And what games have you tried so far on it?



Congrats! on both the car and the laptop

 

after updating my drivers played the following games.

warcraft 3 - 1024x768x32 (i could do 1440x768x32 but it's stretched) max settings with a constant 60fps which the game is capped it.

cs:s - 1440x768 max settings no AA with 100 fps just roaming dust2 drops to 45 when around a group of people.

unreal tournament 2k4 - 1280x786 high settings (not highest) average of 45 fps on torlan.

 

yup.. still jealous that you have yours and I don't .. lol

 

What a glossy car.. i just got my Civic 2004.... and got hit on the rear bumper.. dang it.

Nice laptop u have theere. I'm about to buy for a friend something like that.

 

The laptop from your picture, is that a 9 cell battery or 6 cell? I hope that's a 9 cell because I'm planning to get this laptop only if the 6 cell battery stays flush.

 

i got both the 9 cell and the 6 cell. The one in that picture is the 9 cell, the 6 cell is flush so don't worry

 

cool pics

 

Yesterday, I order the yellow one for my daughter to take to university. It should arrive in 2 weeks. She can't wait for it to arrive.

 

did someone in this thread mention TL?!?!?
heres my baby...im 19.
