[购物指南]

Today, we've got a couple of interesting systems from Dell.ca - one notebook, and one basic desktop computer. First up is the Vostro 1400 Core 2 Duo Laptop for $599. You will need to manually select the Core 2 Duo T5270 to replace the standard Celeron processor. Here are the specs:

• Intel Core 2 Duo T5270 (1.4GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 800MHz FSB)
• Windows Vista Home Basic

Upgrade wise, the $40 upgrade to a WXGA+ display is worth considering, as is the $40 upgrade from the CD-RW drive to the 8x DVD-writer. If you're looking for a very basic new computer at a rock bottom price, have a look at this Inspiron 531 for $289. It features an AMD Sempron 3600+ processor, Vista Home Basic, 1GB RAM, 160GB SATA Hard Drive, integrated NVIDIA 6150 LE graphics, a 16xDVD+/-RW drive, and 1 Year next business day onsite/in home service and tech support.
