Laptops Arena

I love Dell! I know it's not the first time to say it, because this time, it has quite a meaning - the old Dell CRT monitor I told you about some time ago is no more, since I traded it in for a new LG LCD. I already miss that old one, but as long as the user of this new one(my wife) is happy, that's fine with me!

Leaving that old monitor aside, we have some new laptops from Dell, right between netbooks and laptops, since a 14-inch screen seems the minimum acceptable to a laptop, at least as I see things. The Dell Studio 14Z is this new laptop family, and while it doesn't bring anything revolutionary, it's a nice addition to Dell's arsenal.

The Dell Studio 14Z comes with the following specs:

- 14" LED display with HD resolution (720p/900p)
- between .79" and 1.2" thick, starting at 4.3lbs
- up to Intel T9550 2.66GHz CPU
- NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics
- HDMI and DisplayPort outputs
- 1.3MP webcam
- dual digital array microphones
- 2.0-channel audio system

While the six-cell battery is standard, you have the eight-cell as an alternative, promising over six hours of battery life, with the WLED display option.

At last, you should know that the Dell Studio 14Z is priced starting at $649, so it won't empty your bank account, that's a fact!
