most dell inspiron uses ULV processors, which are not recommended(google it if you want to know more), they are good for battery but poor in performence.
You will end up with hours of wait for compliling/rendering :lol:

ULVs are just not meant for cpu hungry works.
Dont worry Asus is great brand (ranked 1st in good consumer response last year), try to exlplain him, he won't regret
