Review: Dell Inspiron E1705 With Core 2 Duo T7200

The Dell Inspiron E1705 laptop with Core 2 Duo T7200 has been reviewed over at Notebook Review. 'The Dell Inspiron E1705 has been around for awhile now. There are many configuration options available, and prices are often very affordable once Dell coupons are applied (for US customers at least). A top of the line E1705 can offer performance almost on par with the XPS M1710, at much lower prices. Recently, Intel released the Core 2 Duo (Merom) processors, and Dell has been one of the first companies to offer notebooks with this new processor.

Dell hasn't changed the design of the E1705 for the Merom processor. In fact, the E1705/9400 looks pretty much the same as the 9300 that it replaced, except it has an extra "MediaDirect" button above the keyboard. The E1705 has silver panels and white bumpers, a look which some people love, and others hate. Personally, I don't mind the white bumpers, but some people have modded or painted their E1705 to get rid of them. I actually prefer the E1705's looks over my HP DV8000t, which tries a little too hard to look good, in my opinion, with its shiny black plastics and large flashy LEDs.'
