Introduction To My Current Computing Machines
Personally, I own a few computers. Now, I am actively using two mainframe computing systems; my personal laptop and a workstation at my office. I am very proud of my personal laptop, reason being, I bought it with my own money, and furthermore, it has served me well long enough for more than two solid years.

Personal Review The Dell Inspiron 5150, weighing in at 8 pounds (roughly 3kg), is a hefty yet portable powerhouse. With a 3.06-GHz Mobile Intel Pentium 4 processor and a 60GB 5,400-rpm hard drive, it can truly be a genuine desktop-replacement.
However, Dell could have been a little more helpful by mounting the USB and FireWire ports on the side for easy access, instead of at the rear. This system is ideal for someone who wants the power of a PC and every now and then needs the mobility of a notebook.
