FYI a common problem with this laptop is that it will just totally freeze and become unresponsive, requiring you to reboot. It’s an issue with the power supply and as a consequence of this you’ll see a ton of them on the dell outlet.

Not to bash this laptop too hard, but really I wouldn’t take your chances buying one.
