I was really looking forward to getting a Vostro over an Inspiron thanks to its durability, reduced bloatware and Vista Ultimate options but I cannot understand why Dell doesn't include a 7200RPM option.

I'd be willing to put up with a delay if the option were made available but why isn't it an option? The HDD is the only thing stopping me and possibly others from making the jump to Vostro as speed is of great importance.

I hope this is taken care of soon as the Vostro is otherwise a very slick machine.

DELL/ Status Update

A 7200 RPM hard drive is an option on the new Vostro1510.

    I completely agree -- I see this as by far the 1500's biggest shortfall. Yet a 7200rpm drive is supported for both the 1400 and 1700. What gives?

    This does not make any sense to me.. I can buy an inspiron with a 7200 rpm drive, but I can't use my business account online to purchase it... I can get a Vostro with my business account, but I can' get a 7200 rpm drive.... aren't these the same frickin computer??????
