Dell Latitude E6420 Overview

Dell Latitude E6420 Overview:
Enjoy business-rugged performance with the redesigned Dell Latitude E6420. Pros: Stylish durable design; Great keyboard; Long battery life with nine-cell battery. Cons: Somewhat heavy; Not much software. The Verdict: Amazing battery life, stylish space-age design, and a comfy, responsive keyboard make the Dell Latitude E6420 a great choice for business users. Ever Popular. Although it has practically died out in the consumer notebook sector, the compact 14" format is still one of the most popular styles of business notebooks. The Dell Latitude E6420 has some big shoes to fill in taking the reins from its successful predecessor, the E6410. Is it a credit to the Latitude series or does it bring shame to Dell?
The optional USB 3.0 offered in place of the Dell Latitude E6420 DVD Drive doesn't sound like a great trade-off because one: you'd miss out on the DVD drive and two: you still have to pay more for the USB 3.0 adapter (exact price not available).
