Dell has released a new business-minded ultraportable laptop the Vostro 1220. With a compact 12.1 inch screen and weighing 1.52kg the Vostro 1220 makes an easy travel companion. The 12.1in Widescreen WXGA (1280 x 800) display means the Vostro isn’t a netbook but the small size and weight makes it a small laptop aimed specifically at small businesses and those who travel a lot.
Available in Obsidian Black or Deep Cherry Red, the cheaper Vostro 1220 comes with an 2.2Ghz single core Intel Celeron and 2GB of memory while the more expensive models have an Intel Core 2 Duo processor and either 3 or 4GB of memory. The memory can be expanded to 8GB on all models.

The Vostro 1220 comes with all the normal bells and whistles including an 8X DVD+/-RW (upgradeable to a Blu-ray™ BD Combo Blu-ray ROM & DVD+/- RW), Integrated Gigabit Ethernet Network, Bluetooth, Wireless LAN (802.11 a/g/with n as an optional extra), 3 x USB 2.0 ports and a 3-in-1 card reader.
The Vostro also has a whole range of optional features including optional solid state drives, which can offer upto to 3 times improved reliability for your data over traditional spinning hard drives, an optional high-capacity 6 cell battery for longer battery life and optional security features to protect your data including a fingerprint reader and hard-disk data encryption.
The security features should be very attractive to small businesses. If your laptop stolen or lost then loss of critical or private date can be devastating. Dell offer a whole range of security options to help keep you focused on business. There is even an optional free-fall sensor to help protect your hard drive from damage caused by accidental drops!
