    Hey all,
    Question, I have both a Latitdue D620 which I upgraded the RAM to 4G and the Hard drive to 320G. But I also have an Inspiron E1505 with 2g of RAM. I want to give one of my laptops to my father because he doesn't have money to purchase a new one. Which one should I give to him? I really like both laptops. please give me your honest opinion. thanks!

    What are the specs of each laptop?

    The Inspiron is the home line, while the Latitude is the business line. If the specs are similar, I'd keep the Latitude, as they hold up better in the long run, especially if you travel with it.
