Dell Notebooks Fight Breast Cancer

Dell has partnered with Susan C. Komen for the Cure to offer a new “Promise Pink” design option on a range of Dell notebooks, the sale of which will help raise money for breast cancer research, screening, and education. With the sale of every Promise Pink notebook, Dell will donate $5 to Susan G. Komen for the Cure, and Dell is promising a minimum donation of $250,000 in 2009.

“With Dell’s Promise Pink laptops, people will be able to share their passion for the cause and show their support for those touched by breast cancer,” said Komen for the Cure VP of marketing Katrina McGhee, in a statement. “Dell users are joining the global breast cancer movement and helping us create a world without breast cancer.”

Work, school, play: Here’s what I love most about Dell’s 2-in-1 laptop — $200 off

Dell Inspiron 14 2-in-1 7420 front angled view with keyboard folded under and showing display.

Sometimes, you need a proper laptop with a keyboard, mouse, and a traditional screen. Other times, it works better to have a tablet, with a viable touchscreen to navigate. For example, if I'm typing up a meaty article or report then I want that keyboard. But if I'm waiting some time at the airport, kicking back trying to watch a show or movie, then I want the tablet format. The best part about a 2-in-1 laptop is you get all of that in a single package. You can unfold normally like a laptop, or fold it backward -- convertible style -- to set the computer up like a tablet. You can also do a bunch of other configurations, like standing up the system to prop it up and keep your hands free. Most 2-in-1 laptops are pretty expensive, though. You can find many of these versatile devices in student laptop deals and back to school laptop deals, of course.

Why you should buy the Dell XPS 14
As our Dell XPS 14 review explains, the laptop has a momentous design along with an excellent haptic trackpad and quiet yet cool performance. While it has limited ports and it's usually quite expensive, that’s less of an issue when there’s a $550 discount involved. This particular model has an Intel Core Ultra 7 155H processor, 16GB of memory, and 512GB of SSD storage. Those are all the essentials you could need, although a little part of us would prefer to see 1TB at this price range.
