Dell Inspiron Duo Tablet Computer
Compared to all netbooks in the market, Inspiron Duo features a flip hinge that covers and exposes a physical keyboard, allowing it to be transformed into a tablet computer. Another notable thing is that it runs on an Intel Atom processor for better performance in multimedia and gaming applications.
Meanwhile, the tablet-and-netbook computer uses Windows 7 Home Premium, although its components are not strong and fast enough to handle this OS.
In terms of design, the Inspiron Duo has a 10-inch screen which can be flipped vertically, thus turning itself from a tablet into a netbook, or vice versa. The lid, on the hand, somewhat resembles a picture frame with its rubbery plastic borders that may come in blue and red, while the interior is lined with gray aluminum.
And because this device has a physical keyboard, it is twice heavier than the Apple iPad 2 (1.35 pounds).
The keyboard is slightly undersized (about 95 percent of a full-size) although it still provides an “acceptable” typing experience. In addition, this feature is complemented with touchpad and mouse buttock which are relatively responsive; in fact, most people will probably use them more than the touch screen which is slightly sluggish.
Most of the problems will arise in the tablet mode, aggravated by the fact that Windows 7 does not offer a usable virtual keyboard. However, one major benefit of this OS is it allows users to run all their favorite applications without going to an app store.
