The day after I purchased the notebook, the price dropped by $50!  So Immediately I went to the Dell small business site, and tried to chat with someone from Dell small business.  I was connected with a guy from Dell home, who was unable to help me...

The Dell Vostro 1400 is a 14.1″ widescreen offering in the Dell Small Business lineup of laptops. The Vostro 1400 is very affordable, but at the same time a very good quality notebook. You don't pay much, but you get a lot with this plain looking but...

The clean-slate design and trialware-free desktop are immediate pleasures that are soon accompanied by solid performance and some surprising media centre-style capabilities.

No trialware, Dell Support application, speakers, Dell MediaDirect, excellent battery life

Viewing angle on screen, no Dell Chat support currently (according to the Dell Web site)
