Default Is this the same Dell Inspiron Mini 10 netbook to buy? If not, then where? - 03-03-2010, 07:03 PM

Hello.



A client e-mailed me to tell me where to buy this specific Dell netbook with the same hardware specifications:

Model : Dell Inspiron Mini 10 INI1
Type : Netbook
Color : Black
OS Type : Windows XP Home Edition – English
CPU : Intel Atom Z530 Silverthorne
LCD : 10.1” WSVGA TL
Memory : 10GB
Storage Capacity : 160GB
Battery : 3-Cell
Integrated Camera, Bluetooth, WLan

However, I think there are typos/errors since I could not find the exact match (INI1, 10 GB of RAM, and 3-cell battery). I found the closest matches in these two places:
Dell Mini 10 & Mini 10v Netbook Product Details | Dell (far right column’s Mini 10 model)
Amazon.com: Dell Inspiron Mini 10 - 10-Inch Widescreen Laptop (Black): Computer & Accessories, but it uses Z520 CPU (not 530).


The good news, I do have its service tag: JVT8QJ1 which ended up at Drivers & Downloads but I still couldn’t match for the one my client wants to buy. Is this specific model not available for purchase or something?


Thank you in advance.

Each individual Dell computer has its own service tag - it is not the model number, but more like a serial number to identify that particular computer. If you are looking for the model with the Z Series (Z520/Z530) processor and GMA 500, it is the Inspiron Mini 1010.

The model listed on the far right of Dell's Mini 10 page appears to be the one you are looking for. It includes the Z530, webcam, and wifi card already, and Bluetooth can be added during customization for around $20.

also when it comes to the memory the is no 10gb, they left off the decimal point it should be 1.0gb of memory (non upgradeable), I would also upgrade from the z520 to the z530 processor, add the 1333x768 HD screen and by all means get the 6cell battery, if you dont you will be sorry you didnt..

PS. The TV tuner is a nice touch too


Dell Mini 10 (Obsidian Black 1010), 2gb RAM, 1.6ghz 533mhz FSB (Z530) processor,A10 BIOS, 750gb WD Scorpio Blue Hard Drive (5400rpm), Intel GMA 500 Integrated Graphics, TV Tuner, Bluetooth 2.1 module with EDR, 1.3mp Camera, 1366x768 HD Screen, Wireless 1510 b/g/n mini card, 6 cell (56WHr) Battery..every option except GPS (wasnt out yet), 4gb SDHC, 8gb Flashdrive, Targus Netbook Chillpad, Targus Sport Case, Windows XP Pro SP3 (98gb)/Windows 7 Ultimate (600gb) (Dual Boot)
