Category: Laptops - Date: April 20, 2010 - Time: 11:11 am

This distinctive netbook by Dell has a bright 10.1 inch, 1024 x 600 pixel display. You also get a 1.6GHz Intel Z530 Atom Processor, 1GB of RAM, and a 160GB hard drive.

The keyboard is laid out from one end of the chassis to the other to maximize the keyboard size.  The touchpad has integrated mouse buttons to keep the Inspiron Mini 10’s touchpad large at 3.0 x 1.4 inches.

The Inspiron Mini 10 is a solid netbook with some nice extras. It comes with standard built-in Wi-Fi wireless connectivity and an integrated 1.3-megapixel webcam. It also comes preinstalled with the Microsoft Windows Windows 7 Starter operating system. You’ll also be able to watch your favorite TV shows on it.
