Dell Latitude E6400


$1,214.00 Released September, 2008

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Runs stable without freezing or needing reboot. Easy to adjust the brightness up or down on the fly. Strong metal construction that doesn't flex or creak.

The Cons:Doesn't have a built-in webcam like all other Dell laptops (ex: Dell XPS or Inspiron series). Color rendering of the screen is a little washed out. Generates a lot of heat even under light usage.

Dell has responded to the market demand for customizable laptops by producing the Latitude E6400. This model has nearly unlimited upgrades, with a price to reflect its increase in performance, however the basic or standard model is still designed to be a productive mobile business tool.

Where to Buy

 Standard Latitude E6400 come equipped with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor with 2.26 CPU speed. The 1.0GB of memory may not be sufficient for a demanding business user but the 8.OGB upgrade may be overkill (2GB, 3GB and 4GB are options as well). Graphics performance is supported by Mobile Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X4500HD with Express Card, while the hard drive features 80GB, 5400 RPM. The standard E6400 does not come equipped with an optical drive, however for an additional $5, a 24X CDRW/DVD with Cyberlink PowerDVD may be purchased. For a true mobile user who demands reliable connectivity, the standard Wireless 802.11 b/g Mini Card may prove insufficient. Dell has given the Latitude E6400 many different levels of bundle packaging as a response to the various demands of the business world and person.
