Dell Inspiron 1720 is the powerful laptop that has potential to replace your PC (only if you want to). Different from other Inspiron products, 1720 is not cheap. The most positive thing from Inspiron 1720 is the mobile broadband.

It's rare to see a 17" notebook has an installed mobile broadband inside it (at least, until now). We think Inspiron 1720 is another great innovation from Dell. So far, Dell's massive advertising campaign has been successful. It seems people love Inspiron 1720. With monitor resolution up to 1920x1200, it's very reasonable why people love this notebook.

Dell Inspiron 1720 is a top choice for gamers due to its huge hard disk capacity (320 Gigabytes). One external USB tuner and two webcams are other great parts inside this package. The negative thing about Inspiron 1720 is its weight (8.8 pounds). Why it's heavier than other Inspiron laptops? Because Inspiron 1720 has dual hard drives.
