Media frenzy
The $2,557 Latitude X200 we tested came with Intel's
933MHz ultralow-voltage mobile Pentium III-M, 384MB of
RAM, and a 20GB hard drive.
Small but well
supplied
The Latitude X200 may be small, but it squeezes in a lot
of features. It measure .8 inches thick by 10.7 inches
wide by 8.9 inches deep and weighs 2.8 pounds. The AC
adapter adds .49 pounds, while the media slice adds 2.46
pounds and doubles the notebook's thickness.
Connectivity is good, with one IEEE 1394 (FireWire), one
Ethernet, one modem, one audio, and two USB ports. The
single Type II PC Card slot is nice, but rather than a
spring-loaded door, it comes with a flimsy, plastic
dummy card that'd be easy to break or lose. Dell meets
you halfway on 802.11b wireless networking; you get dual
antennae inside the system. The display and the
input devices (the components you'll use the most) are
well designed. The 12.1-inch, XGA (1,024x768),
active-matrix screen is small--a typical ultralight
trade-off--but it's bright and crisp. Atypical for an
ultralight, the keyboard is nearly full-sized and feels
as big and comfortable as a desktop's. Nestled in the
wrist rest is a smooth-feeling touchpad with two mouse
buttons underneath
