That's a lot of information to digest but two of the better laptop deals to note are the Inspiron 15 for $549 and the Inspiron 17R for $799. Both feature third generation Intel processors, sizeable hard drives and a decent amount of RAM. If you're not into gaming, these will work really well for home, school or small business use. They're likely better suited as desktop replacements but they're affordable power-laptops worth considering if you're in the market for an upgrade.

Main advantages IMO are 5-buttons and native Bluetooth. Once you get used to a 5-button mouse it's hard to go back, both figuratively and literally. I've remapped the two side buttons to standard "Forward" and "Back." That makes web browsing as well as general navigation so much easier. Native BT saves a USB port for a dongle if you have BT built into your notebook. Battery life using two Eneloops is 2 or 3 months even with heavy use. As for size the BT mouse is significantly smaller than standard-sized meeses. The BT mouse is made by Logitech so it's high quality and durable. You can find lots more comments on this mouse via RFD Search.

Thanks!
thx
Also, how is it for light gaming (rts)? Is there significant delay?
Has anyone had any experience with the soundbar addon how is it in terms of quality is it wroth getting?
"From $341.99
You Save $222.00
Now $119.991"
Any comments on the mount? I need to mount my 47" LED set. Wonder if it will clear the thermostat.
As for how do I know it's a Logitech? Let's just say that you'll recognize it when you see it. You'll also recognize that the software Dell ships with it bears a striking resemblance to Logitech's SetPoint software. In fact I've been using Logitech's SetPoint with my Dell BT meeses for several years without any problems.
As for light gaming, beats the hell out of me. I don't do gaming. What are you expecting from a $15 mouse?
