Laptop Magazine reviews the Dell XPS M140 laptop and writes - ‘Overall, the Dell XPS M140 is a thin-and-light notebook that knows how to entertain, with the most versatile instant-on feature yet. It’s reasonably priced, but the average-sounding speakers and lack of a PC Card slot keep it from being an Editor’s Choice pick. ‘
