Dell Inspiron B130 and B120 Review

Dell Inspiron B130NotebookReview.com has a look at the B130 and the B120 from Dell, and the results are less than stellar.

The Dell B130 ends up being a fine notebook for general usage and as an extension of a desktop computer. Obviously this notebook is not for gaming, but if you’re looking for a cheap solution for a portable PC so you can do work or surf the web from the couch, or have a cheap PC in the dorm room then the B130 is fine.

I can’t whole heartedly endorse buying this notebook when there’s better options out there for the same price, but if you like Dell and can use one of the often available Dell coupons to get a good price on this machine then it’s not a bad pick.

I am not really all that surprised, though I expected a bit more from Dell in this leg of the notebook competition that is currently running out there. The article mentions grabbing an HP or Compaq of similar price for more features, and I am going to have to agree there. Most of the HP and Compaqs I have seen atleast come with a 6 cell battery, while this dell only has a 4 cell battery, reducing its battery life.
