Dell Inspiron Mini 10 Price Dropped!

inspiron mini 10 Dell Inspiron Mini 10 Price Dropped!

The new Dell Inspiron Mini 10 netbook with Intel Atom N450 processor launched last January is now RM100 cheaper. That’s bring the price tag to RM1199 from 1299 when it if first released. This price is only applicable if you purchase it from Dell online store, as retailers still selling it with the old price. The drop in price also probably means new Inspiron Mini 10v is coming is soon. But that’s purely my assumption based on my experience when I just purchased the older version of Inspiron Mini 10v when a month later, Inspiron Mini 10v with N450 is released. Forget that, this is one of many affordable netbook available out there in the market, and in case you wanna know more, hit this link to view the product page.

If you have been wondering why the price of Dell Inspiron Mini 10v is getting cheaper lately, here is the reason. The new Dell Inspiron Mini 10 (no longer called 10v) had just been released couple of days ago.

Beside the new looks (some say taking cue from Adamo especially the hinge) the new Intel Atom N450 is now powering this netbook, which is said to be more power efficient.

Dell claimed the 6 cells battery can lasted up to 9.5 hours, compared to the 2009 model which lasted 1.5 hours less. However, the weight is now little bit heavier at 1.25kg compared to 1.17kg on the previous model.

Except the price tag at RM1299 which is RM100 pricier from previous model, the enhancement does make this netbook a better piece of machine. Head to Inspiron Mini page for detail spec.

How Inspiron Zino HD made Inspiron Mini 10 a bad purchase

4096202473 d6d0af2291 o How Inspiron Zino HD made Inspiron Mini 10 a bad purchase
image credit to Dell

I have made a wrong decision when I purchased Inspiron Mini 10. Really. It is under power, run on Win 7 starter pack and without HDMI port.

Inspiron Zino HD (released yesterday) is guilty for making me to think like that.

As my Inspiron Mini is a week old, the fact that Inspiron Zino HD has way better spec than Inspiron Mini made me sick. Take a look at the base spec below. With price tag RM1199 (less RM100 than Inspiron Mini) , I feel this is a bargain. It has a better CPU, Win 7 Home, massive hard drive, bigger memory, generous port and HDMI.

I know that it sounds unfair to compare netbooks, with its existence meant for portability with mini desktop, but because my purchase was merely to try a netbook with Windows 7, it is quite a waste of money.

Anyway, if I have spare money, I’ll turn this to multimedia storage connecting it to LCD TV through HDMI.. wow!

Seen it somewhere before? I know, you must be thinking of Mac Mini, isn’t it? Well.. sort of, except that Zino HD is colorful.. and made by Dell.
