 Great machines November 3, 2006
Tampa Tiki (Tampa, FL USA)
As others have already said, these Lattitudes are far superior to the Inspirion line. These are Business Class machines made to perform for a long while with solid construction and reliable hardware.
I prefer my C610 to my Sony Vaio, at least for an all around travelling machine. Even though the Vaio is much newer my old Dell is much better on battery usage and somehow the processor does not seem to be much slower than my Centrino!
I am a network administrator and use this machine extensively while travelling through 8 states for my company locations and the dell is the only machine that ever comes with me.
Highly suggested for an inexpensive and not top-of-the-line purchase but definately max out the RAM.
Simply one of the best laptops ever made September 8, 2006

I have owned my C610 for two years. I bought it used. I own a web hosting business. Needless to say, I am ALWAYS online (in the car, in road side rest areas, airports, home, office, etc) and I am contantly using the C610 to program and test. I highly recommend this laptop to anyone who is involved in mission critical computing situations. Also the LED screen has sharp, vivid color. Easy on the eyes.
 Latitude c600/c610 series are rock-solid January 10, 2006

Ok, the price may seem a bit on the high side here. But let me give the insight of a person who has had the Latitude c600 series, Inspiron 5150, Latitude D810, and Inspiron 9300-- the c600 is a tough computer, reliable, and (memory allowing) powerful. For this price, you could do much worse.
You can go to Dell.com and get a new Inspiron for much less than a new Latitude. However Inspiron does not use as rugged and tested parts as what goes into the Latitude series. My Inspiron 5150 was a piece of junk, however my Inspiron 9300 is wonderful. These inconsistencies are based on the lower testing and durability requirements of the Inspiron line; you never know what you are going to get.
To get back to the Latitude, especially the C600/610 -- historically speaking for me, this computer has performed the best, under the toughest circumstances, for the longest amount of time with minimal problems. I did have a keyboard replaced, and I bumped up the memory to 512mb, but this is one solid computer. Of course, bear in mind that this computer series is a few years old. Decide for yourself if it is worth the price, but if you don't need the latest processor and you want something reliable, this one can't be beat within Dell's stable.
here is why you buy this instead of a new inspiron December 22, 2005

I've owned "new" inspirons that I paid twice as much as for this latitude..Hands down the Latitude is simply a better machine even if it it reconditioned. The latitude is more consistent, sturdier and holds power longer. I was so disappointed by my inspiron that I don't think I would ever buy another one. As far as I am concerned, Dell is lucky that I would buy any product. But the latitude is as good a product as the inspiron is bad. Go figure.
Good machine - highly rated by Industry review sites December 12, 2005

I purchased one like this at another site at the same time my daughter purchased a new Inspirion 600M in Fall 2005. She paid about $1800 [including about $300 for maximum warranty]. 80 gig hdd, Combo DVD Rom/CD +/- R/W, 512 megs memory, 56k modem, 10/100, 32 meg ATI AGP video card, legacy ports, XP Pro, wireless, extra battery, plus some other minor adds. CPU is Celeron at 1.6 mhz or so. No carrying case, no floppy. Price did not include any 'extra' software other than that installed on base model.
Mine: PIII at 1.2 Ghz, 'M' cpu that offers step down to 800 mhz when on batteries, 30 gig hdd, 512 megs memory, legacy ports,1 usb is 1.1, 2 PCMIA slots, 56k modem, 10/100 ethernet, 16 meg ATI Radeon Mobility AGP video card, AC power adapter, 'new' leather carrying case, floppy drive and cable, Combo DVD Rom/ CD +/-RW. Plus it still had 120 days on an extended warranty. Though it came with a 'bare' HDD - no O/S. But that is what I preferred. I booted from a boot floppy and fdisked the drive, formated it and installed Windows 2000 Pro. I then went to the Dell site and dowloaded and installed the necessary Drivers.
I had absolutely no problems with the o/s install and the install of the drivers. Plus I flashed the bios to the newest version.
I already had an old Dell Latitude CP 233mhz that went bad, but the battery from it is a match to the one I bought + the AC power supply is compatible. Plus I already had a 56k PCMIA X-Jack modem, Linksys PCMIA 10/100 Ethernet card and a Netgear WG511 54 Mbps wireless PCMIA card that I had used on the now defunct CP 233. I also had a wireless router. I did buy from another vendor an additonal battery [now have 3, can use 2 at a time, though have to give up a slot for the Floppy or the DVD Combo. And I bought another 56k PCMIA modem that has more features.
I did have problems with the installed modem, which is a PCTELL and for some reason the one stick of 512 memory went south. It took me about 25 minutes on the phone with Dell support, to have them ship to me a new stick. I received it the next day. And have had no problems since. I was lucky that I got a tech at Dell who knew his stuff. Plus I had already run Industry Standard Diagnostics software to test the memory.
Battery life in my opinion is excellent - about 5hrs with the two 3800mAH batteries installed - surfing, MS Office applications, music, Windows Media Player running at same time. Weight is good.
Running Sisoft Sandra on her machine and on my machine gives results almost equally the same for both machines.
And running other benchmarking programs give about the same results. Battery life for both machines seems to be about the same, but it seems that hers is somewhat better.
Of course my C610 is used and now out of warranty and hers still has about 3 years to go. Hers is newer and sometimes newer is better, but at the time I was on a limited budget, she was not.
I have done a number of tweaks to get more performance out of mine, though I have done none to hers so not to void her warranty. The only tweak I have done is to a registry setting that maximizes the O/S to increase download speeds on Broadband.
With the base price of the machine and the other purchases my cost was 26 - 27 % of her $1800. I forgot, I already had an extra unused, legal license for Windows 2000 Pro + for the other software I have used freeware and open source software.
Anyway that is my $.02. I was pleasantly supprised at the performance and features equalness between her machine and my refurbished [done by Dell - who then transferred it to a 3rd party] machine!
