Dell Inspiron 1525 - Pentium Dual Core 1.73 GHz - 15.4 - 4 GB Ram - 320 GB HDD Reviews
| 15 of 18 people found the following review helpful  Honestly? It just sucks, By This review is from: Dell Inspiron 1525 - Pentium Dual Core 1.73 GHz - 15.4 - 4 GB Ram - 320 GB HDD (Personal Computers) I can't remember the specifics of the older model Dell laptop I had for four years, but I loved it & it treated me well. The only reason I bought a new one was because the hard drive popped out of the old one, & before I realized it could just be popped back in I had already ordered the 1525.This computer is like an $800 headache. I don't even care that it came with Vista, because honestly it hasn't given me that many problems & I'm not picky about my operating platform, so long as it gets the job done. (Although, I will say, it comes with a completely useless graphics driver, & I had to downgrade to the previous edition of the driver to get basic games to run.) I've been lucky & haven't had the battery or trackpad problems everybody else complains about. But even as one of the "lucky" ones, I'd had to deal with my fair share of crap from this model. 1. The left mouse button is permanently stuck in the down position. It still functions, but it doesn't have that...

I wouldn't have even given it 1 star! I think I had it for 3 months before the hard drive died taking all of my files with it. Luckily I still had a warranty so they replaced it for me after a few hours on the phone and them making me try a bunch of stupid things that didn't work. Then shortly after that my memory gave out. When I called there they told me to reseat the memory. I did, and the laptop turned back on. I didn't realize that one of the memory chips had burned out completely and it was only running on 1 GB. I should have had 3GB. I didn't realize it until after my warranty was up.They outsourced their customer service to India. Try getting them to understand anything you are saying. Its like talking to a box of rocks. I'm not a computer genius but even I knew what the problem was. I argued on the phone with him for hours. They are useless. I will never buy another Dell nor would I recommend it to anyone. Which is a shame because I have...

Although you have many features and seemingly high end components, you will be disappointed with performance.Primarily, you will be very dissatisfied with: - the trackpad pointer, which is erratic and buggy for which Dell has no fixes, nor are any forthcoming - the CD/DVD tray phantom ejection problem, which is also well documented by users on Dell's own customer web site; again no fix forthcoming - loads of adware/Dell-promos which get annoying and will make you wipe your HDD to start fresh. Avoid the Inspiron line altogether. Dell has dropped the ball completely here. Disclaimer: I currently have a higher end Dell Inspiron with a full Core2Duo/250GB/3GB. I have tried to use the Dell/Best Buy Geek Squad coverage, but this is a un-usable perk, since Dell will do nothing except refer you to Best Buy, who will insist on taking the laptop from you for an indeterminate period (last time it was for 2 months,...
