She's gone for the Dell Insprion 15R with the HD screen, so added to the Canon 7D she bought yesterday her pocket is a little lighter.
She's just spent 3 years on cruise ships as a photographer after finishing uni, and now wants to try to make a career in photography. For some odd reason she doesn't think Ipswich is the place to do that :Sad: So she's off to Manchester in the next few weeks, just got to find a house share first, then hunt for a job before her money runs out. So if anybody has a room for rent? She's house trained and a good cook.
Thanks for all the replies:thumb:

I would advise her to take out extended Dell warranty ..
I have two Inspirions, less than two years old.. both have problems, one occurred outside the 12 month warranty , the other unsolvable ..
No1 .. On mine.. Overheating, despite running it on a cool pad with integral fans.. Apparently a common issue with models with i7 processor..
Returned it to Dell under warranty but they failed to fix.. I now live with it running red hot with the internal fan going flat out.. this makes it almost useless unless on mains power as it drains the battery. I checked the core temperatures, at idle they are around 65c rising to 95c when working hard.
No2 .. Jan's with an i3 processor.. touch pad has given up the ghost.. not a software or driver issue. I contacted Dell who said it required a new touch pad, but as it was now out of warranty it would be at my cost. .. so she lives with it using a usb mouse.
I have heard of Inspirons having issues - and they only ones of the Dell range to really suffer, so I am told. Why I have no idea, but an extended warranty may be beneficial in this case just to be sure.
I must say, though many do not like them my Sony Vaio is around 6 years old and never had an issue with it - and I can assure you it gets some use and is carted around all over the world.
The battery hasn't the best life anymore - but as I say, 6 years for original battery isn't too bad in this day and age!

It certainly put me off buying another Dell..
I purchased ours as we have an old Dell Inspiron bought in 2007 that is still going strong .. albeit a bit slow by today's standards. Handy backup .. also have a 12" Sony VGN bought in 2007 for travelling and it too is still going well.. daughter uses it at school.. but I seldom use any laptop these days as I much prefer using my desktop with twin monitors.

We've had this conversation here a year or so ago, was it with you ? I'm pretty sure I said the good days of professional photography have gone now due to digital. Naturally others disagreed and were probably right.
Once it was hours in an expensive darkroom, manipulating exposures, dodging and if you got it wrong, more hours and a fair bit of cash wasted.
Now, certainly a huge skill in using photoshop fully, but so much quicker and almost zero cost to get the result you want before you print it.
Apparently, good old fashioned photography is enjoying huge come back you will be please to hear!
There is as always a 'name' for it which I forget - but they love the exposure, not knowing what you will get and laying pictures on top of each other - it was on a news program over the bank holiday.

I saw that.
Wasn't impressed. How can you take any pride in creating something good accidentally ? It's like a monkey throwing paint at a wall.
Have you heard of The Infinite Number of Monkeys ? If you put an infinite number of monkeys in front of a word processor eventually one will type the whole works of Shakespeare.

Hi jim the dell she's ordered has an i5 processor, so hopefully will be ok. although its likely digital will her main method, hence the canon, her real love is film, especially black and white. She thinks she can use film as a usp when selling her skills like at weddings. Who knows, people now pay over the odds for vinyl records so she may find a nice little niche market.
