PC Magazine has posted a review of the Dell Latitude D420 notebook here on their website. This small and light notebook is pretty much a cross between the Dell Latitude X1 and the Latitude D410. The X1 is known for it’s lightweight demeanor while the D410 is a corporate oriented notebook. So what do you get with the D420? A corporate notebook that is darn light and compact! Here are the major features of the D420 unit reviewed by PC Magazine:

  • Intel Core Solo U2500 processor running at 1.2 GHz
  • 1GB RAM
  • Weight of 3.7 lbs
  • 12.1 inch widescreen display
  • Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950
  • 60GB HDD
  • 802.11 a/g
  • External optical drive

You can configure the D420 with a Core Duo processor but the notebook doesn’t currently have a configuration with the newest Core 2 Duo processor. Oh well! It’d be interesting to see someone pop in a Core 2 Duo processor though! Here’s the verdict from PC Magazine.

The Dell Latitude D420 is the convergence of the Latitude X1 and the D410, and with it, you get more battery life and an integrated cellular modem in a system that (unlike the X1) looks and feels like other Latitudes.
