Dell’s 12.1-Inch Vostro 1220 Targets SMBs, Starts at $799
June 30th, 2009 by Dana Wollman 
Dell seems to have picked up on a trend: shoppers really like the idea of low-cost, small-screened notebooks. Dell’s dabbled in this category already with its Studio 14z ($599.00).
Now, the company has expanded its small business-oriented Vostro line to include the 1220, a 12.1-inch ultraportable starting at $799, a price that, before this year, would have been unheard of for a notebook this size, particularly in the business category.
The notebook, available in Obsidian Black and Deep Cherry Red, has an integrated DVD burner, standard six-cell battery, webcam, and Dell Video Chat software. The base configuration has an Intel Celeron CPU, but you can upgrade to a Core 2 Duo processor.
Hard drive sizes range from 160GB to 320GB; a 128GB solid-state drives is also available. While a 3D accelerometer does not come with the $799 configuration, it’s available in higher-end skus. 802.11n, Bluetooth, and a fingerprint reader also do not come standard.
The 1220 is available today on Dell’s site.
