    Glaring Fast laptop
    UPDATE:::: 3+ Weeks since I got this.... More voluminous softwares(even ones that run during start up) / games / videos have gone in, but the performance is entirely the same. Audio capabilities of this laptop is simply stunning.... I have a HDTV and a Sony Home theater system. When I put together this laptop to the TV and listen to MP3 songs, the audio output is just amazing.... Made me feel like dancing to the cadence.... I am comparing this with a 2 year old Gateway laptop that I own (does not have a HDMI connectivity, so use VGA Cables rather than... So I understand that I'm not comparing apples with apples :-), but still.... ). I don't use this laptop primarily for gaming... But I did try playing Tales of the Simian Island in complete high settings, and the video and audio were awesome. Connect it to your HDTV and amplify the experience.....

    Well merit the price
    I have had this laptop for the last 2 weeks. I straight love it. The screen size is pefect. I dont have to travel much so the size suits me well. The laptop is rather fast and the screen is bright (HD LED). The audio is really great. Well one thing Dell ought to have improved is the clash of the fan. Otherwise no complaints.
    Software undecided and unsupported
    I purchased an Inspiron 1764 laptop originally because the combination of specs, features and price was unbeatable. The system began to malfunction shortly after I installed fundamental security and office software. It would not connect to my HP printer. There were local network and driver errors, along with hang out hangs, bluescreen crashes and other problems. Dell tech support blamed me for "corrupting" their operating system and said I would have to pay supernumerary for software service, since their "limited" warranty covers only hardware. I restored the machine to works settings, only to see the problems reappear. Despite my extensive experience as a computer professional, I was unable to fix the software problems. Internet inquire into showed I was not alone. These issues appear to be specific to Dell systems, since I have another vendor's laptop also running Windows 7 and the same application software, with no problems whatsoever. I have been a loyal Dell...

    Worth netbook with FULL keyboard
    Extensive little netbook at an affordable price. Specs are pretty standard for a 2010/2011 netbook: 1G RAM, 250Gb HD, 3 USB ports, fundamental video camera, separate Mic & headphone jacks, sd card slot, vga output and a very productive 8h battery life. There are a lot of netbooks like this on the market, but what really stands out for me on this one is the keyboard, FULL size crucial keys with ALL the cursor movement keys: DEDICATED up, down, right,left, PGUP, PGDN, Proficient in and END. I work a lot with excel spreadsheets and it is really uncomfortable to move pressing fn+end/up orf+end/down or ctrl+fn+home, ctrl+fn+end, etc. to move around. Also scrolling with pgup/pgdown while reading a hanker web page is a pain when you have to press also the fn key! With most netbooks you have to live with the fn key, not in this case, the NB505 keyboard is quite practical and comfortable, almost like a full laptop or pc keyboard, even do the position of the keys is not standard, they let you do the work...
    Powerful Netbook - Excellent Second Computer
    I bought this computer a few weeks ago and so far my experience has been very encouraging. This netbook is solidly constructed and is ready to use out of the box. The keyboard isn't difficult to use and the trackpad is OK - a little touchy for my taste. Unlike many other systems it doesn't come with a lot of bloatware - trial versions of programs you don't neediness anyway. There is some, but almost all for arguably useful programs. The included Toshiba software seems well-designed even though I personally have no use for it. As for help, the computer is powerful enough for a netbook, and will run net-based and home office applications smoothly. Of course, it falls sententious for more intense use like video editing, image processing or games - but then again, that's not what this computer is for. However, the Atom processor in this constituent is on its way out, and for about $100 more you can get a netbook that is considerably faster. Nevertheless, or a solid, cheap, ultraportable...
    no netbook,,are yu cute or what?!!
    I interpret a lot of the reviews before i bought this little netbook, glad i ignored most of them. This is a great little gizmo, It's not for gamers. It's not for techies. But it's out-and-out for surfin the web, email, facebook and day to day stuff or travel to keep in touch. It's small (the keyboard takes a microscopic practise) and light weight. it's more than fast enough. People who expect this to run and do all the things a desktop or full hugeness/function laptop do are being silly. It's not what this is for. I like it a lot.

    this is surely strange
    I picked this keyboard up at Fry's for about 40$. It was a bit of an impulse buy since I already own the HP Wireless Top-quality Keyboard that has served me quite well for the last few months. I was just looking for something smaller for my desktop computer, and smaller this keyboard undoubtedly is. The layout of the keys themselves are very compact and are actually smaller than the keyboard of my laptop(I believe it would be comparable the weight of a netbook's keyboard). The keyboard itself a little wider than a sheet of paper folded term wise. The build quality is nice as far as I can tell with no noticeable blemishes. The ability to move the cursor on telly using "Optical Finger Navigation" is interesting. I wasn't even aware of this feature until I picked it up at the upon. I have found that the features of this keyboard might not really serve a person on a desktop well. For instance, the F# buttons can only be in use accustomed to while holding down the "fn" button in favor of...
    So Far, Not So Satisfactory
    Let me start with the things I like about this keyboard. The create-factor and design are flat-out brilliant. Seriously gorgeous to look at, and it looks terrific sitting next to my media fore. I bought this for use with my Dell Studio Hybrid 140G media center PC (also a brilliant design), and for occassional use it's OK when browsing the internet or installing a media center extension from the comfort of your sofa. But there a so many problems with this keyboard I in point of fact can't recommend it. o It randomly locks up from time to time, even under light to moderate use. No idea why. I'll be rational in the middle of typing something or moving the mouse and it'll just die. No power switch on this puppy, so you have to go crazy it over, pop out one of the batteries, let it sit for a couple of seconds, then put the battery back in to get your keyboard / mouse back. o The wireless timeout for the keyboard is set WAY, WAY, *WAY* too low, and as...
    Kindest HTPC Keyboard I've Ever Owned
    Hello sweetheart couch potato surfers! I've been using various wireless keyboard/mouse combos to dial my HTPC over the last 5 years, but none has been better than the HP Wireless Mini Keyboard (which I am using to type this critique) that I picked up at Staples last month. This was an impulse purchase and I paid full retail for it, but it can be found on the net for under $40. My last HTPC input manoeuvre, the former champion of couch surfing, was the Logitech diNovo, an aggravating clamshell design with too-diminutive keys, a crummy finger trackpad, and lackluster battery life (thanks to the keyboard backlighting). HP's Mini has none of these problems. By likeness, the HP Wireless Mini Keyboard can be had for 1/2 to 1/3 the price, and is a better device entire. It's so good that I've been writing reviews about the HP Mini across the net, something I've never done before! This keyboard definitely comes packed with colossal features for the price.
