Inspiron 9100
I am looking at 9100 3.0, 512 ram 40 gig hd and 64 video ram. How are these units in terms of quality, keyboard feel, screen size, and are they too big to be considered portable, I had a 8600 which I was not that happy with.

The 9100 is a discontinued model now, though the XPS remains available.

Can you use this on your lap or is it too big. I like to work on the sofa etc.

I do not disagree but since there is no way to see or try out this computer, I turn to the Dell commmunity for assistance.

Yes ...thanks that seems correct. I just downloaded the Intel chipset ID software. It took all of10 seconds to download and within a minute it identified my chipset. Follow this link to download the utility from Intel

I have an Inspiron 9100 - I purchased it as a desk top replacement - I either bought a low quality laptop and desk top or the better spec Inspiron 9100.
I have found it very useful - powerful, quick and does all I need from it. However, it is a little on hte heavy side to carry around - I travel on the train alo and therefore am always using it on my travels.
The battery life is good, which is another plus for it - the large screen helps - however, on the highest screen setting, files, etc, are too small to read, therefore I have to downgrade picture quality for normal use (1240 x 800)
However, I have recently had my first problem - difficulty in booting up - today I have not yet been able to boot up - I am still trying to resolve this problem
I hope this helps with your choice.
