Having been amongst the first to purchase the Dell 910 Mini I wanted to share my experience with others that might be thinking about acquiring this item or one of the other sub-notebook or ‘netbooks’ as they have become known. I manage a web design agency and I’ve been contemplating the idea of acquiring myself a moreportable laptop as my old Dell Inspiron from 2003 is as heavy as a brick.

Shortly after having retired the old Dell to my girlfriends house (I couldn’t face lugging it back and forwards any longer so it just lives there now, I might well do the same with myself one of these days soon!) it stopped charging and wouldn’t run from the mains, so eventually when I gave it to my tech to repair he found out that it was one of the known faulty models, the 5150 which developed a problem with the motherboard overheating after prolonged use, this I found out about 2 years after they stopped replacing them as part of a class action lawsuit, shame I’m two years too late to get it replaced for free!

Ah well what’s 150 quid for a factory refurbished Motherboard off ebay, compared with years of loyal service in spite of being dropped a couple of times, spat on repeatedly, eaten over and all manner of other not recommended usage styles! I even used to have it hooked up to my TV via the onboard S-VHS port and watch films on it, so it has seen some action, oh yes!Not that I download movies off the internet you understand of course, oh no that would just be wrong, and illegal and I wouldn’t want to risk getting my broadband disconnected!

However, this was all instigated by my step dad who just took delivery of top of the range Toshiba Portege at around £1,200, but he’s at that time in life where 1,200 quid is affordable, where as I’m still in financial recovery from my last divorce (yes there was more than one!)! So I stumbled across an ad for the Dell Inspiron 910 Mini on the Dell site whilst looking at specs of laptops for a customer, and there it was £299 inc VAT and delivery. What a bargain I thought!

Anyway there I was flexible friend on hot standby, wrist twitching ready to make a purchase, but wait a minute I thought, why am I buying this, do I really need it? No, I don’t NEED it I just WANT ONE ! So then some sensibility came over me and I put my credit card away, feeling all pleased with myself at having managed to resist an impulse purchase!

However, the next day my step Father needs me to take a look at his new machine because he can’t get the music software to work and can’t get it to see the other machines on our network(this job for me, comes with the territory! ) So I have to genuinely work on this ultra lightweight Toshiba, wow I’m amazed at how light it is, especially when compared with my old Dell 5150! I wish I could afford one of these I thought! I noticed he didn’t have my recommended security software set up though. I setup my preferred internet security products: Avast Anti Virus and Spybot Search& Destroy which usually I always use.

The next day I had to go to a client’s and as it was first thing in the morning I went straight from my girlfriends house and took the old laptop with me (which gives me a great excuse to call in on my way back and drop it off, coincidentally around about lunchtime when there might be the chance of a ham, cheese and salad sandwich on the go! Yum, she is soooo good to me!) So anyway, I about put my back out trying to put this incredibly heavy laptop in the car passenger foot well whilst sitting in the drivers’ seat! One of those ‘put your back out’ manoeuvres. So having experienced the new lightweight machines first hand, and realised I do have a genuine NEED for the new Dell Inspiron mini after all, weighing in at around 1kg, you know I planned to get that credit card out again as soon as possible!

So as I had a management meeting that afternoon I informed my Finance Manager I would be ordering one and that was that. It was Friday October 3rd when I placed the order on the Dell website, and on the 8th I got back from a customer meeting to find a tiny cardboard box on my desk with the Dell log on the side, I thought it couldn’t possibly be the new mini as the confirmation email I got said it would be delivered on or around the 20th October, but sure enough it really had arrived! Just a 5 day turn around, wow!

So I’m like a kid in a sweet shop thinking “best day ever” (See Heroes Season 3), I was ecstatic and carefully unpacked it, tossing instructions and disks to one side of course, “read those later” I thought. I got it out and started setting it up straight away, you know remove McAfee Security Centre and all the other junk software these things come with these days.

As it has an integrated web cam I also downloaded Windows Live Messenger and had a short video call with my girlfriend whilst she was doing her ironing, superb! What a great bit of kit!So next I Googled ‘mobile broadband suppliers’ and toyed with ordering the USB dongle from Three, as their 5GB monthly allowance is only 15 quid a month so the best looking deal, providing those coverage stories you hear about Three Mobile are not really true! (Update: Yes the coverage is lousy in all the areas I want to use it, even at my desk I have to connect the dongle to a USB cable and hang it from my roof to get 1 bar signal strength, buy another brand!)

Anyway, it was soon time to go and pick up my daughter from school so I thought yeah I’ll take it with me and even though I don’t have the mobile broadband dongle yet I can continue configuring it in car park if I’m early. I was early, so I turned it on, it said:

Windows could not start because of an error in the software.

Please report this problem as :

load needed DLLs for kernel.

Please contact your support person to report this problem

As we say in England from the popular Catherine Tate sketch “Computer says no…”

Ah dear, it was great fun whilst it lasted, all of about 2 and a half minutes!Then followed a 2 and a half hour telephone marathon with Dell support in India Apparently they were so quick to ship it to me that my service tag isn’t on their system yet.

Why wouldn’t they send me a new one? They couldn’t look up the service tag on their system, that’s why! I couldn’t understand it at all, it’s not like it was something really complicated like a virtual pc or something.

They suggested I called back in 24-48 hours, well I told them exactly what I thought of their suggestion as I’m sure you can image, but to no avail. I did indeed have to call back today and they have agreed to send me a replacement unit as it is within 7 days of delivery.

I hope the replacement arrives as quickly as the original unit did…

So conclusion? Apart from the fact it doesn’t work (a faulty drive in my opinion) and for the life of me I can’t get it to boot from an external drive or USB key (it doesn’t have a CD or DVD drive you know) it feels really solid, looks lovely, and is nice to handle (sounds a bit like the ideal partner to an i-phone 2.0 doesn’t it!).

Like most reviewers have experienced, the keys are small (but blackberry users manage and they are larger than those keys) and the right shift key is tiny and means you can’t type an @ in the usual fashion. But the screen is nice, 3 USB slots, a monitor connector, Ethernet and earphones and mic connectors although it has both speakers and mic internally so you can Live Messenger without having to plug anything in.

On the whole, I would recommend it, providing you get one that works ! I am also yet to try it with LogMeIn which is my preferred way of dealing with how to access emails, lots of passwords, specialist software and all that kind of thing when you are out and about. Possibly the screen is going to be too small to be able to work with for extended periods of time, but I’ll let you know when the replacement arrives and I have had chance to give it a proper testing, assuming that one doesn’t break on me as soon as I start urm ‘configuring’ it!

Further Update: So I have had the Dell Mini for about erm, wow nearly a year now! It would never work with LogMeIn over the 3 dongle. To be fair 3 were very helpful, until we took the dongle out and successfully used it in another one of my machines and were able to connect on LogMeIn without any problems, at this point they referred me to Dell, at which point I lost interest!

It is all to do with one of the browser settings, not remembering itself when you tick the check box and hit OK. I can’t remember which one it was now, and maybe internet explorer 8 will have fixed the problem or it might work on Mozilla browser instead, I just never got round to trying to sort it out again and tend to use the Mini more now to read the news in bed with my cup of tea in the morning.It’s just so convenient being so small, and another great feature is it’s near instant turn on. If you just shut the lid it goes into standby, open the lid and it comes back on again within seconds.

It is too small to use for really extended periods but it is great for checking your email when you’re out and about, or for a quick impulse surf when you can’t be bothered to turn the main pc on and you want to remind yourself what other films that actor or actress was in for example!

Data storage to the solid state hard drive is only 14 GB on my model so you will need to get yourself a USB memory key if you want to access a lot of data on this machine, but with 64GB flash drives available for around £100 these days, that shouldn’t be a problem and the newer models will probably see larger drives on them very soon.

It’s a cracking little machine though and also works quite well down the pub, because I can fit it in the pocket of my big coat, and that is proper cool, except it doesn’t like beer puddles much so I tend to avoid taking it most of the time, unless I know I’m going to need to log on, but then the pub has got a sexy new Mac which is already covered in beer so I prefer to use that (any excuse to get behind the bar really!)What is so magical about being able to go behind the bar at your local anyway? I suspect if I actually worked there it would soon wear off!

In summary though it has not had any hardware problems since the initial replacement was received. On the whole I have found that Dell kit tends to be pretty reliable anyway, especially when you are dealing with the more business based items whereas this is obviously more consumer oriented. With a Dell or most new PC’s if they are going to breakdown they will usually do so within the first 6 months of use and generally after that they will keep going until they reach their recommended service intervals such as changing the disks after a couple of years and that kind of thing.

It should be pointed out though that these mini Dell laptops/netbooks, call them what you will, do not having a traditional hard disk drive inside them. A normal hard drive has a disk inside it that physically spins round and a ‘head’ which moves backwards and forwards over the sectors quite like the relationship between the stylus and the tracks on an old fashion vinyl record(which being 40 next year I do remember from my childhood)!

The storage within the Dell mini, and other netbooks too I should image, are solid state, that is to say they are rather like USB flash drives or memory keys. In fact I think from a picture I saw they look more like RAM memory chips all joined together than a single physical device. The advantage of using solid state memory over traditional hard drives is that they use less power, they are not as heavy and they are quieter. Much quieter. If you’re like me you will have noticed how computers have got a lot noisier over the last 10 years, as they have got more powerful.

My machine is blissfully quiet in comparison to any of my other computers, desktops or laptops. Although if you are super-sensitive to sound like I am then you can notice a very slight hum or whine when you request a program that requires it to access the hard drive. Most people probably won’t notice this but if you are familiar with the faint hum from your mobile phone charger or other devices of that ilk that transform power from one state to another then you might know what I am talking about. It certainly isn’t a problem though, although the power adapter for the machine itself does make some odd noises if you listen to it closely.

My favourite aspect of this machine is that in some it elicits the same response as having a small puppy or kitten out and about with you, especially down the pub where if you get it out to a bunch of girls you can hear the ooh and ahhh’s of girls who think something is cute! That is priceless!

There are a lot of purposes served by wearing a tungsten rings for ladies and several reasons why someone may give a ring to someone they care about. Some may think a ring represents everlasting love and bondage. That may be the intention when a groom places a ring on the finger of his bride, but sadly, this does not ensure everlasting love. The ring is actually a token stemming from ancient magic. A circle has strong magical connotations. The circle never ends. It goes on and on and represents an eternal unbroken wholeness of time and space. It is the strongest and most natural shape in all creation. When you think about it, most everything circulates in cycles or circles. Some purposes for wearing a ring are: 1. A mother might wear a ring with the birthstones of each of her children. 2. A student might order a school ring with his or her year of graduation. While still in school the insignia of the ring is worn facing the body.

After graduation it is worn with the insignia facing out. 3. A friendship ladies tungsten rings may be worn on the little finger or any finger of choice, representing a friendship that is close, but not romantic. 4. A promise ring may be worn on the ring finger of the left hand as a symbol of love, faith and commitment, but not necessarily engagement. It is usually not as expensive as an engagement ring. 5. Then of course there is the engagement ring, usually with a diamond in it, symbolizing purity and light. 6. And finally there is the wedding ring, placed on the ring finger of the left hand, because it is said that there is a vein which runs from this finger straight to the heart. So wearing the wedding ring on this finger puts the ring closer to the heart than if worn on any other finger, although some customs do put the wedding ring on the ring finger of the right hand. But wait. There is one more reason to wear a ring. This type of ring can be worn on the index or second finger of either hand, preferably your dominant hand.

It is for protection. It’s a beautifully stunning and elegant tungsten rings for women, crafted in silver and gold plating with a genuine black onyx stone and it’s the perfect self-defense ring for women or men. Inside this beautiful ring is a hidden reservoir of pepper spray. The tiny replaceable pepper spray canister hidden in this ring gives you self-confidence while out jogging, working, and especially for women who are out on a date with someone they are just getting to know. It’s really perfect for wearing anywhere to ward off any attack, whether it be in a stair well of a building or a dark parking garage. Use your thumb to activate the trigger and your assailant will get an eye full of nasty stuff, causing the eye capillaries to become inflamed, forcing the eyes to clamp shut. It will also inflame all the other mucous membranes of the face, resulting in temporary difficulty in breathing, coughing and choking, and severe burning sensations in the eyes, nose, throat and skin. Although this will last up to 45 minutes, there is no permanent damage and you will be able to escape and call for help. So, there really is magic in the circle. Magical protection from a dangerous assault. It sure would be better to have one of these protective rings and never have to use it, than to not have one and really need it some day. Besides, it’s a beauty! Be safe out there.
