Dell XPS M1710 and Inspiron E1505 Rank Third in August Issue of PC World
PC World has compiled a couple of Top 5 notebooks lists in its August magazine issue – one for desktop replacement notebooks and another for all-purpose notebooks.
In both lists, Dell notebooks rank third – with the XPS M1710 representing Dell for the desktop replacement segment, and the Inspiron E1505 for the all-purpose notebook segment. Despite the rankings, however, both notebooks were actually extremely close to their higher-ranked counterparts, with only 1 or 2 points separating them from the top notebook in the lists.
Not surprisingly, battery life was quite a weakness for both of Dell’s offerings, with the Dell XPS M1710 trailing by around 30 minutes compared to the No. 1-placed HP Pavilion dv8000z, and the E1505 trailing by over two hours compared to the Pavilion dv5000z.
In my opinion, these lists serve as an indicator of sorts that Dell has to up its competitiveness just a little more – especially in light of the fact that its most dangerous rival, Hewlett-Packard, is at the top of both lists.
