Dell Inspiron 600m + Extra Battery + Firewire Adapter Introduction
----------------------------
Overview of Product
----------------------------
Among a brand-new crop of Pentium M (PM) notebooks, the Dell Inspiron 600m is one of the smaller systems. This thin-and-light laptop weighs a modest 5.6 pounds but packs Intel's new Pentium M CPUs in speeds up to 1.6GHz and the new Intel 855 chipset. The 600m includes cool additional wireless features, such as two dual-band 802.11a/b/g wireless antennae, coupled with a smart, new case design.
The thin-and-light Inspiron 600m represents an entirely new case design for Dell. Based on the mostly gray, 6.3-pound Inspiron 4150, the 600m comes in a sophisticated, 5.6-pound silver case made from a combination of strong magnesium alloy and aluminum. The case measures 1.3 by 12.4 by 10.1 inches.
The Inspiron 600m remains fairly lithe by including just one swappable bay for optional drives and modules. A second battery and hard drive also fit the bay.
The Inspiron 600m's keyboard resembles the 8500's, with a couple of exceptions. The comfortably familiar, desktoplike layout of both boards huddles Home, End, Page Up, and Page Down keys in the upper-right corner. Yet the slightly shorter length of the 600m's board makes it feel sturdier in the middle.
Dell doesn't clutter the Inspiron 600m with too many ports and slots. The left edge sports headphone and microphone jacks; an IrDA port; and one Type II PC Card slot with a handy, embedded smart-card reader that allows you to store and read sensitive password, credit card, and other info on optional smart cards. The front edge features two speakers with clear, but not deep, sound. Most ports sit on the back edge. There are S-Video out, 56K modem, 10/100/1000 Ethernet, parallel, VGA, and serial ports, as well as two ports for USB 2.0.
Cutting edge is the name of the Inspiron 600m's game. This thin-and-light notebook, aimed at both home and SOHO users, is based on Intel's new, battery-saving Pentium M processor, at your choice of 1.3GHz to 1.6GHz. The system ships with ATI's fastest graphics chip, the Mobility Radeon 9000, including either 32MB or 64MB of dedicated video memory. Swappable modules for the internal bay consist of CD, DVD, CD-RW, DVD/CD-RW, and floppy drives, as well as a second hard drive and a second battery. In an attempt to keep case weight manageable, Dell offers only a 14.1-inch display but provides both an average 1,024x768 native resolution.
