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 easy 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, move your mouse over a thumbnail to preview the window full-screen. You can even close windows from the thumbnail previews--a big 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.

Review Date: March 2, 2010
Reviewer: A. Fowler, AR
I have been looking at getting a laptop (or maybe netbook) for a while, keeping an eye on specs and prices. For this price point, this was the best deal I was able to find. I've only had it like 4 days but it feels like weeks. I keep finding neat new features I would have never expected. Very happy with this laptop, well worth every penny.
My favorite specs are:
- much longer battery life than most any other laptop i was able to find under $600
- great amount of storage/memory
- can put my camera chip directly into computer on the side, w/o having to dig out the usb cable
- happy/confident with the brand, that it will last a long time
...have yet to use the dvd burner, but soon, very glad it does have dvd burner as my last computer didn't
- watched a handful of tv shows and movies, very good screen quality
- the video conferencing you can do with the cam/mic has lots of fun features, also good quality

and best of all.. i had it in my hands in less than 24 hours after i ordered it using the amazon prime next day delivery, $3.99 for shipping and no tax was what put it over the top for me. I guess the only thing i didn't like was that it doesn't come with Microsoft Office, but i deleted the program it came with and put it on there anyway, so didn't effect me.(Don't think I've seen a new computer that comes preloaded with it w/o having to pay extra anyway.) Customer reviews were very helpful to me in my search so just wanted to return the favor, thanks, and good luck in your search!

---update: over 4 months now.. very high usage.. still lovin' it!

The Dell Inspiron Laptop is an excellent buy. It is very compact, the Windows 7 Operating System is easy to use and I am very happy with the purchase. The only thing that I would like to have on the laptop is a lighted key pad.

Review Date: December 29, 2009
Reviewer: John F. Cassidy, Hanover, NH United States
So I was concerned that the ULV (Ultra Low Voltage) processor would not have enough "umph" but I was wrong. This is a nicely assembled machine and I even like Windows 7 (mostly). Background - I've worked in tech for 24+ years in a lot of different ways, but everyone who knows me says I'm a gadget freak. I've got all the toys - PNAV devices, iPods, iPhones, PCs, Macs, wireless networks - you name it. I've got the TV hooked to a cable box, iMac, and AppleTV and love them all. I'm typing this on my favorite computer of all time - a Macbook Air. So when my wife's 3+ year old 17" Dell notebook announced that it's battery was no longer doing well and we had three blue screens in a week's time - I knew we had to get her onto a new machine. We thought it would be either a 13" or 15" Macbook Pro, but she decided that spending twice as much for a Mac was too much. So I went in search of the best PC alternative. This Dell 1470 is pretty close in size and features to the 13" Macbook Pro including claimed 6 hour battery life. And it largely lives up to its promise. It's the fastest PC in the house and for the $584 we paid Amazon right before Christmas is turning out to be the bargain of the year. I did have to reformat the hard drive to get rid of multiple partitions so the Windows Easy Transfer program would work correctly, but that only served to conveniently getting rid of all of the unwanted junk that Dell feels compelled to load onto the hard disk. Positives: light weight - fast enough speed - abundant memory and hard disk space - and a cool red color. Also - the power supply is both smaller and lighter than past Dell models included, and it's compatible with all of the old Dell power supplies we have around here. I would have given this machine 5 stars if it had a backlit keyboard which you can get on the Studio 15, but not on this model. Don't forget the crappy hard drive partitioning which brings it down, AND I don't know what Microsoft is thinking - you can't back up to a network drive (I use a DROBO with Droboshare) without paying $89 to upgrade Windows 7 to the Professional version. Also - if you configure a Dell Inspiron 14Z (same model, different name) comparably on the Dell website, you'll be north of $900 so Amazon has the bargain here. Also - Best Buy stocks this machine so you can do like I did, and go test drive it for yourself before buying. Recommended! Good luck!

Reviewer: Robert T. Desautel, Sunny South Florida
The I1470 is a top performing Win7 optimized thin and lite business package. Packed with DDR3 4gigs of ram and an ultra low voltage CPU for outstanding battery life. The laptop is not an ultra lite but it is a great lite weight package that does it all with few frills and all the hard working ports and output requirements. Great battery life and enough processing power to do most anything required (but not gaming) this is a hard hitting low cost package with Dell quality and reliability. The omission of wireless N is the biggest mistake here (what were you thinking Dell?).

Reviewer: Sam, Connecticut
I bought this laptop about 2 months ago. The screen is very bright and images are crisp. The computer has enough power for daily computing needs; email, web, spreadsheet, etc. I run a software company and only buy Dell computers now. I used to buy HP products until 7 years ago. Dell by far has a superior product line. I especially like the fact that most of Dell laptops, including this one, run very cool. This is in direct contrast to HP laptops which run very warm.

PROS:
- Great display.
- Fast
- Wakes up from sleep mode almost instantly (every time)
- Runs cool (keyboard stays cool)
- Great battery life (over 6 hours)
- Comes without any pre-installed trial software

CONS:
- No bluetooth so you have to use a USB mouse.
- Power plug on right side interferes with mouse (if you're right handed). I like the power plug to be on the left side so that I can have more room to move the mouse around.
It's very calm over here, why not leave a comment?
