A blast from the past – Dell Inspiron 7500

Dell Inspiron 7500

The other day I was sorting out stuff under my bed,constant tidying seems to bea hobby of mine, and I discovered an old treasure.  This Dell Inspiron 7500 is about 8 years old roughly and comes in old school black.  Unfortunately during that time the battery has overlived its life cycle several times so the only way is with a power cable – sort of defeats the purpose of being a laptop now.  Running Windows 98 really made me see how much Operating Systems have improved as it did take 2 mins to load up Internet Explorer and google.

It really boasts performance to go with its 90′s stylish looks:

Intel Pentium III
Inbuilt Speakers
Inbuilt keyboard and touchpad
Onboard Graphics card
15″ TFT Screen (1024 x 768) – No dead pixels
Floppy Drive
192 MB RAM
DVD Drive

It’s damn heavy as well so I’m going to sell it to a better home maybe for spares.  I’ll be sticking with my Mac Powerbook thank you very much.
