So, I'm considering buying a new laptop. by SaylorA 2009-08-24 13:15:02
I've narrowed the choices to two Dells, an Inspiron 14 and an Inspiron 15. (Please, I don't want to get into a discussion between brands, costs, etc.)

They are both the same price, have the same processor, have the same size hard drive, same amount of memory, and the same optical drive.

The differences are:
The 14 is ~5 pounds with a "bright" LED screen at 1600x900.
The 15 is ~6.5 pounds with a "regular" LED screen at 1366x768.

I would rather have the lighter weight unit, but I'm concerned about how easy to read the stuff on the screen would be on the smaller display.
