Dell's new laptops now feature Windows Vista you can however special order them with Windows XP installed if you are not convinced that Vista is right for you. Windows with their Vista and XP OS have set the standard for all operating systems to follow. All of Dell's basic models feature Windows Vista Home; this is more then adequate for most users and provides excellent performance without the bells and whistles. For the more advanced users and business oriented laptops, Dell does preinstall Windows Vista Home with Office software or Windows Vista Professional. This software upgrade will provide the needed tools to achieve your maximum productivity. In buying a laptop computer you must first decide on what features you need. If the computer is to be used only for casual internet surfing and emails, for instance, you do not need a blazing fast machine with a lot of memory and a high performance CPU processor. One gigabyte of RAM memory will be more than enough and for many users even less than that will do the job. A CPU of around 1. 5GHZ to 2GHZ is sufficient. A basic machine will do the job nicely for you and you can save quite a bit of money by looking for a used machine to fit your needs. Dell has made sure that you will be able to connect your peripherals with ease as each laptop comes standard with at least two USB 2.0 ports, some of the more advanced laptops feature four ports. USB 2.0 is the standard connection on all new printers, digital cameras, scanners, and MP3 players which makes them easy to connect to the laptop. Several of Dells' laptops also feature an IEEE 1394 (Firewire) port, this allows you to connect your video camera or similar devices, allowing you to import record or edit your video files right on your laptop. Audio jacks are standard on every Dell laptop which allows you to add headphones or a pair of external speakers to further enjoy your multimedia experiences. If your laptop computer is going to be used for gaming you will want a top performing CPU and a lot of memory. You should be looking at a dual core or quad core processor and 3 gigabytes or more of RAM memory. Anything less will mean slower action which is not what you want. Two or more USB ports are needed and the bigger the screen the better. You are looking for a top of the line computer to fit these specifications. Used models are harder to find in this range of machines but there are a few to be had at a saving. All Dell laptops are created and designed to provide the optimal computing experience. The cases are made to be attractive, but durable enough to protect your laptop against the bumps along the way. The Dell laptop keypads are easy to operate input devices that are made to be portable but large enough to still type with ease. Finally, whether the size of the screen is twelve inches or seventeen inches, each screen is designed to provide a cutting-edge picture with rich color and detail in any lighting environment. Dell is building a new assembly plant in North Carolina. It has customer call centers in Edmonton, Canada, and Manila, Philippines, handling calls from the company's millions of computer customers. Wherever you are, and whatever you need, Dell can help you.
