Speed: Dell Inspiron i1470-3053CRD Features Intel Core 2 Duo 1.3 GHz Dual Core Processor.  The speed is decent.

Storage: Offers ample storage capacity with a 500 GB hard drive. Hard drive speed is 7200 RPM which is very fast for laptops.

Display: 14″, 1366 x 768 widescreen resolution. No LED Backlit Display, will drain battery faster.

Optical Drive: Comes with 8X DVD±R. Can burn CDs and DVDs.

Graphics: Features Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X4500HD built in graphics chip. This is not a dedicated video card. Can play ordinary games but will not play latest intense 3D games. Shared video memory.

Wireless: Dell Inspiron i1470-3053CRD features integrated Dell 1397 b/g wireless adapter.  Does not have 802.11 n adapter. 802.11N offers stronger signal reception. May provide poor wireless signal reception. Also has an ethernet port. Bluetooth is not available on this system.
