Dell Introduces Blu-Ray Drive on Laptops Print

With a price tag under $900 who can refure.

 

Laptops running on windows have something that Mac's will never have. A cheaper price tag. Now PC's are once again or should I say, are staying ahead by adding a Blu-Ray Drive onto laptops.

Dell was selling Blu-Ray drives for a while now and it until now that  Dell unveiled it's Inspirion 1525 notebook computer that with a Built in Blu-Ray Drive with a price tag starting at $879.

"Dell has been a backer of Blu-ray from the beginning, and we've actually been offering Blu-ray notebooks for close to 18 months now," said Dell spokeswoman Anne Camden. "The big news now is we are actually able to offer it at a price that puts it at a mainstream user's reach."

The Drive is fully backward compatible with DVD and CD and will also allow users to Burn DVD's and CD's as well. If you want to update your drive to a Blu-Ray burner you may also do so.

"Blu-ray is definitely moving into the mainstream," Camden said. "If somebody is thinking of investing in a Blu-ray library, now's the time because not only are they able to watch it at home but they can leverage that library and take it on the road, and it's affordable to do."

The Inspirion 1525 comes with a 15.4 Inch screen and is able to put out a resolution of 720P and comes with an HDMI port for easy connectivity to an HDTV.

Now the Question is will it be able to play games in HD like Bioshock and Crisis?
