The Dell Latitude E6400

The Dell Latitude E6400 as Laptop E6400 battery, the update to thesony vgp-bps8 battery , packs in all the essentials needed to keep road warriors productive on the go: a speedy Intel Core 2 Duo processor, long battery life as vgp-bps9 battery, vgp-bps9a/b and a host of security and durability features. Factor in the revamped design as t61 battery, lenovo r60 battery and so on. which replaces its predecessor’s stodgy aesthetic for one that’s much more streamlined and visually appealing, and you have an excellent notebook(inspiron 1501 battery) for demanding business users.

New Design vgp-bps8

Measuring 13.2 x 9.4 x 1.0 inches and weighing 5.6 pounds, this 14.1-inch thin-and-light machine features a subtle brushed metal black lid that is available in two decidedly nonbusiness colors: Regal Red and Regatt Blue (in September), along with Mica-Brushed Metal, or as we like to call it, black. The magnesium-alloy body gives the machine as DV2000 battery for a sturdy feel, as do the large, silver hinges.

The 14.1-inch (1280 x 800-pixel resolution) display looked good head-on, but the screen isn’t quite as bright as the panel on the HP Compaq DV6000 battery, whose viewing angles are also more generous from side to side. Above the screen is a 0.3-megapixel camera with Advanced Light sensitivity that made us look surprisingly clear while engaged in a video chat, although the colors were a bit muted.

The keyboard makes for an excellent typing asVGP-BPS2C Battery experience; the firm, yet springy keys virtually jumped up to meet our fingers after we pressed them. Located between the G and H keys is a responsive pointing stick that’s a fine alternative to the relatively small touchpad. Dedicated buttons for raising, lowering, and muting the volume rest above the keyboard. Crisp sound poured out of the stereo speakers that flank the keyboard, which only slightly compresses the keyboard layout.

Ports and PowerShare

The system’s perimeter contains numerous ports and outlets for hooking up gear: four USB 2.0, eSATA, VGA, Display Port, Ethernet, modem, lenovo t61 battery ,FireWire, one Type II PCMCIA or ExpressCard/54, 5-in-1 memory card reader, and headphone and microphone jacks. The uppermost USB port on the left side of the unit is the most intriguing: Taking a cue from Toshiba’s Sleep and Charge technology, Dell’s USB PowerShare lets users charge their gadgets through this special port (which is designated by a lightning bolt symbol next to the traditional USB symbol), even when the computer is turned off.

CPU and Hard Drive Performance

Under the hood of our Dell Latitude E6400 was a 2.26-GHz Intel Core 2 Duo P8400 processor and 2GB of RAM, which made for a smooth computing experience. fujitsu t5010 battery notched 3,025 on our PCMark Vantage test (which measures the application performance of PCs running Vista). That’s almost 500 points higher than the thin-and-light average vgp-bps9/s, but about 400 points less than the Lenovo T400 Battery, which has the same processor but discrete Nvidia graphics as opposed to the E6400’s integrated Intel graphics.

We were able to work within Google Docs, chat with colleagues in Meebo, listen to MP3s, and run a virus scan without seeing a performance hit. We’ve come to expect slow boot times from Vista-based systems, but vgp-bps9/b wasn’t bad: It took 53 seconds to gain control of the OS after hitting the power button. Many other notebooks take a minute or longer.

If you’d like to add additional memory, inspiron e1505 battery can be outfitted with an outstanding 8GB of RAM. Dell includes a 5,400-rpm 160GB hard drive that’s protected by Strike Zone technology for storing documents, photos, music, and video. Transferring a 5GB file of mixed media took a swift 3 minutes and 18 seconds, or a rate of 25.7 Mbps. Copying the same files to another folder on the drive took 4 minutes and 35 seconds, or 18.5 Mbps.

Graphics Performance

Our configuration was equipped with Intel’s GMA 4500M HD graphics.xps m1330 battery notched a score of 918 in our 3DMark06 test, more than 300 points less than the thin-and-light notebook average (1,236), but that’s to be expected of a system with integrated graphics. On our F.E.A.R. test, fujitsu lifebook t4220 battery produced predictably low frame rates: 20 frames per second in auto-detect mode (800 x 600-pixel resolution). Despite the low F.E.A.R. numbers, inspiron 1525 battery handled World of Warcarft pretty well; it automatically ran at a smooth 32 fps with the resolution set to 1024 x 768 pixels. If you’d like more graphics punch, you can add discrete Nvidia Quadro NVS 160M graphics for $70.
