Jump Lists
New in Windows 7, Jump Lists take you right to the documents, pictures, songs, or websites you turn to each day. To open a Jump List, just right-click a program icon on the Windows 7 taskbar. (You’ll also find them on the Start menu.) What you see in a Jump List depends entirely on the program. The Jump List for Internet Explorer 8 shows frequently-viewed websites. Windows Media Player 12 lists commonly-played tunes. Your Jump List missing a favorite? You can “pin” whatever files you like there. Jump Lists don’t just show shortcuts to files. Sometimes they also provide quick access to commands for things like composing new e‑mail messages or playing music.
Improved Windows Taskbar
In Windows 7 you can “pin” favorite programs anywhere on the taskbar for simple access. Not crazy about the icon lineup? Now you can rearrange them any way you like by clicking and dragging. Finally, there are new ways to preview windows. Point to a taskbar icon to see a thumbnail preview of open files or programs. Then, go your mouse over a thumbnail to preview the window full-screen. You can even close windows from the thumbnail previews–a huge time saver.
Snap
Ever need to cut through a cluttered desktop and quickly focus on a single window? Just click a pane and give your mouse a shake. Every open window except that one instantly disappears. Jiggle again–and your windows are back.

Dual-Core Pentium Power
 |
Ready to go up to a dual-core? This Intel Pentium processor-based PC is a excellent place to start. The Intel Pentium processor is the quick dual-core that lets you surf the web and run multiple applications simultaneously. So you can browse, IM, download music or transfer photos all at once. And use office applications, too.
With the 2.1 GHz Intel Pentium T4300 dual-core processor, you’ll be able to perform multiple tasks such as digital rendering and gaming all while running virus scan or other background tasks seamlessly. And its Intel 64 architecture is also ready for tomorrow’s 64-bit applications, and offers enhanced performance through improved virtual memory. It has a 1 MB L2 cache and an 800 MHz front-side bus (FSB). (An L2, or secondary, cache temporarily stores data; and a larger L2 cache can help speed up your system’s performance. The FSB carries data between the CPU and RAM, and a quicker front-side bus will deliver better overall performance.)

I have had Dell for years, but I will be making the go to Mac. Dells are crap and getting them to fix your computer is a right pain in the neck. I even bought the 3 year warranty from Dell but they just refuse to fix the problem, it brakes all the time and with different things. With a Mac I will just need to go to the store and never mail it away.

I’ve bought nothing but Dell for years but I’ll never buy another computer from them. I shipped it in for repair. I told the Dell rep and wrote it three different places that the repaired machine had to be sent to my winter address in Florida. But it was nonetheless sent to the incorrect address. It took me an hour and a half and fourteen different people to get to the right person. That person emailed Fed Ex and told them to pick up the package and ship it to the right address. But Fed Ex says there is literally only one person at dell who can authorize a package to be sent to another address. So after a week my computer still sits at the incorrect address. I don’t have the time to deal with such incompetency.

Having recently owned an Inspiron lap top from Dell, I would only assume that they would be get better as the product line developed, and not worse. Unfortunately, I was incorrect. The black colored design is appealing, unless you are a fan of fingerprints, which seem to collect everywhere, and sadly, it shows scratches too. Perhaps maybe a coating can be applied to the next Inspirion that prevents this. Surprised at how slow this system booted to Windows, and have already encountered a few freeze ups. Battery life is quite poor, achieving no where near the 4 hours and 34 minutes on a fresh charge. Maybe, if I am lucky can I get 2 1/2 hours from it by doing every day computer work. Keys on the keyboard seem to stick and have an overall cheap feel to them. Screen is nice and bright, but that is really only the saving grace of this particular model. The size and weight of this unit isn’t terrible, but overall nothing special, about the average. I am sure there are other Dell models that would work out better than than one. Noticed there were other reviews for this unit but all have been removed? Why is that? Can’t people honestly give their opinion on a product here without it being removed. I don’t recommend this laptop to anyone, so because of that, does that mean my review won’t be justified? I wasn’t aware that reviews have to always be positive. I would despise to reckon that censorship is alive and well today. Overall Dell is a fantastic computer maker but this version of the Inspirion runs flat.

The Dell 1545 Gloss Black laptop has one technological advance that you may not have heard of, and that is the gloss black computer case, and the equally advanced matte black top. Several years ago, scientists learned a way to make a plastic that was impossible to touch without making glaring fingerprints. Nobody knew what to do with this material until Dell chose to make a computer out of it. When you first open the laptop, the gloss black end is very handsome. But, once it is touched, it gathers fingerprints and smudges like no other material I’ve ever seen. So that is one caveat for the user: Do not touch the computer anywhere but on the keyboard so that it will stay clean. Not even the mouse pad. This can be challenging, but by holding your palms above the keyboard and getting an extensive routine of surgeries to realign your wrists, you can type on the computer without making a mass of greasy fingerprints and smudges.
The case top also has the incredible ability to not only capture fingerprints, but to keep them despite vigorous polishing. I am impressed with this new material, which is I believe called “EternalPrint”, which was apparently designed to capture the prints of criminals permanently on a plastic medium. Do not commit any crimes while using the Dell 1545, for God’s sake, because the law will need only to confiscate your laptop to get all the fingerprints they need.

I was very disappointed with the Dell and the Inspiron. First, groundbreaking new, the battery life was excellent for less then 30 minutes! Second, I had no luck getting it to connect wirelessly. I could not get a Dell service rep on the phone, only the sales people, people who consistently told me to use the internet to access Dell’s support staff. But when using the internet, I was not able to get a real person. It was clear that when I would submit questions, a computer looked for key words in my question and generated a (useless) response accordingly. I finally resolved the problem by seeking advice OUTSIDE of Dell — but it took many months of fantastic frustration to get the wireless machine to connect wirelessly. NEVER AGAIN DELL.
