I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A200 but have the chance to buy a Dell Latitude E6400 for a good price...I havent a clue whats good and whats not!

So,

Toshiba Satellite Pro A200 V's Dell Latitude E6400

Is there a great deal of differance in these machines? WouldI be wise to upgrade

whats the spec on them mate

Jay-Nitro · 21-09-09, 09:17 PM

I havent got a clue!

Ive googled them both but im totally clueless with spec's. Im guessing the Dell is better but dont know how much better and whether its worth swapping and selling the Toshiba

crofty1379 · 21-09-09, 09:26 PM

just had a quick lookthe dell hs slighty better spec m8 with room to upgrade the ram what i would do is weigh up the how much u would get fo urs and how much u can get the other one for if there isnt much in it then i personally would have the dell up to u though mate

I managed to get the specs from both,

Toshiba Satellite Pro
Intel Core Duo2
T7100 @ 1.82GHz
2038mb Ram
100GB Hard Disc

Dell Latitude E6400
Intel Core Duo2
P8600 @ 2.4GHz
2.39 GHz 1.95GB Ram
70GB Hard Disc

Would people still think the dell alot better machine or just slightly better. If its just slightly I might just leave it, saves moving all my files about and stuff!

The Dell is a fair bit better but if theres no reason you need an upgrade at the moment then why do it. On the other hand at £200 the Dell is to good to miss as I recon you could sell it for £500+ on Ebay or more elsewhere. I would also expect you to be able to sell the Toshiba if you wanted for over £200, so I would buy the Dell try it and decide which to sell.

Go for Dell and sell the other. It is the Good Choice.
