Strengths: Good Website
Weaknesses:Horrible Customer Service. Received acknowledgment of order but no confirmation. Tried email, chatting, talking and a supervisor - none of which could help. Told "order was in collections" (paid with credit card) and "configuration was wrong". Could not cancel so now I watch to make sure they do not charge me. A complete DISASTER.
Overall Evaluation: Great website - easy to order and configure. However, Dell has Horrible Customer Service. Received acknowledgment of order but no confirmation.

Review:
Dell Inspiron 1720
Splashy laptop offers excellent entertainment options and great sound, as well as strong performance.
A powerful laptop does not have to be a boring laptop. Take Dell's Inspiron 1720, a robust system that also happens to be available in seven colors besides black. The 1720 is a heavyish 17-inch notebook, but its multimedia design is outstanding.
