Dell outs new AMD-based ultraportable Inspiron M301z


Dell has added a new Inspiron notebook to its portfolio, with a product page appearing on the company's Singapore website. The M301z is the latest in a string of AMD-based systems recently launched, and it's a fine addition, if we may say so. The 13.3-inch ultraportable measures less than an inch thick and weighs around 3.89 pounds depending on your specific configuration.

It's outfitted with a dual-core Athlon II Neo K325 or Turion II Neo K625 processor, ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4225 integrated graphics, 2GB to 4GB of DDR3 1333MHz RAM, 320GB of storage, a 1.3MP wecam, and a six-cell battery. There's nothing out of the ordinary as far as connectivity goes, with I/O including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth v2.1, HDMI and Mini DisplayPort output, and a multi-card reader.

The Inspiron M301z ships with Windows 7 Home Premium preinstalled and pricing starts at $1,000.
