My uncle just bought a Dell Vostro 1510, over the weekend i have the chance to play with it as he asked me to install some common use software into his Vostro.
Spec:
Intel Core 2 Duo T8100 (2.1GHz, 3MB Cache, 800MHz FSB)
3GB DDR2-667 Ram
320GB WD SATA2 HDD
8x Slot load DVD +/- RW
15.4" WXGA Display with Anti-glare
128MB nVidia 8400GS DDR3
Genuine Windows Vista Business
I only had my HTC Touch in my hand throughout the review, so there is only 1 pict taken. Click here for more picture of Vostro 1510.
Overall the spec is almost the same as my Inspiron 1420, the difference are only my Inspiron is running a T8300 processor and smaller 14" Display. So performance wise.
One issue I wanted to bring up in this review will be Dell build quality. The design for the laptop seriously not bad! But the materials that being used is very cheapo, too much plastic, the feel of typing with it is not as good as my Inspiron. Furthermore, the plastic look couldn't attract me to do my work with the laptop.
Another cons about this Vostro will be the Slot load DVD +/- RW, when you insert a disc to the drive, the noise that produced is seriously bloody loud! Even louder than the XPS 1530 drive.
IMHO, if you plan to buy an business laptop, try to consider other brand like Lenovo Thinkpad rather than spending RM 4.2k on this piece of plastic, i know the spec of other brand may not match with Dell but the premium you paid at least you can buy more metal with it!
