    Much like the rest of the Inspiron range; they seem well built for an Inspiron, but they do use slightly more budget parts such as the Alps touchpad that some people have been having issues with.

    Mine is the old 8660, not the 8662 that everybody recommends nowadays. I love the machine, but I don't get to use it much seeing that my fiancée loves it, and I love her, so it stays at her place. We're moving in together next month, and I can't wait just so I can get my hands on that laptop again. OK, there might be other motivations; she's a much better cook than I am.
