Answer:
but in comprison to which notebook??
Any Dell, other than the tower box model, is a throwaway computer after you get to the point you want to update. The software included never amounts to much. Buy it if this is a temporary computer for 3 years. It is not upgradeable.
I built the silly things after 3 and half days of training. I prefer my white box off-the-shelf-parts upgradeable machine.
