Most of our orders are from repeat customers. Parts-People began as a small company 20 years ago in an extra bedroom of my house. I had saved a small sum of money to purchase some computer parts and began selling them on eBay. After a few months I realized that people needed a place to go for Dell parts so I began building our website. Since we are located in Austin, Texas, where Dell.com was founded, I was able to set up a solid supply line with Dell. From the start, we focused on customer satisfaction and selling quality parts. We have grown a lot since 2002 but still and always the customer will come first. You will find that we go above and beyond with every order and offer free resources and support before and after the sale.

If you find yourself wondering why anyone could possibly need a 17-inch, 2-in-1 convertible laptop, you’re not alone. The 15-inch hybrid models are already a bit large for a device whose focus is on ease of portability, so a 17-inch version seems excessive to say the least. At that point, why not just spring for a lightweight laptop with all the bells and whistles? The main reason that hybrid devices have previously maxed out at 15 inches is that makers tend to feel that anything larger, and perhaps even the 15-inch models themselves, are simply too large and awkward to flip and move in the way that a 2-in-1 is designed to. But in this day and age we consumers want it all, and Dell wants to give it to us.
Dell announced their new Inspiron 7000 line at Computex in Taiwan last month, and the highlight of their presentation was undoubtedly the introduction of what Dell claims to be “the world’s first 17-inch of its kind”. The behemoth hybrid sports a 17.3-inch full HD touchscreen and has plenty of room to house all the niceties of a full-blown laptop, such as a full-sized, backlit keyboard and number keypad. There are ports galore – a 17-inch slab allows ample room for a USB Type-C, USB 3.0, USB 2.0, and the standard HDMI and SD card slots. Under the hood you’ll find a sixth-generation Intel Core i5 processor, up to 12GB of RAM, Nvidia GeForce 940MX graphics with 2GB of GDDR5 RAM, and up to 1TB of hard drive storage. It even comes with an infrared camera for Windows Hello’s facial recognition login feature. And as with most 2-in-1 devices, the 17-inch Inspiron 7000 features a 360-degree hinge to allow users to easily shift from laptop to tent mode.
For the majority of casual 2-in-1 users that simply enjoy the portability they offer, 17 inches may end up being a dealbreaker. It could, however, be the ideal middle ground for creative professionals who desire more screen real estate with which to doodle and build. In fact, Dell even features it running what appears to be a DJ program on their website. While it will not likely be the next iPad in terms of popularity, only a fool would discard the possibility for success in some of technology’s fastest growing niche markets. Plus, while the rest of the PC seems to be experiencing a decline in PC sales, Executive Director Marty Wong says Dell has seen 13 consecutive quarters of increasing PC market share. Back in Q1 of this year, they surpassed HP as the number one PC brand in the U.S., in large part because of their innovative line of 2-in-1’s and powerful gaming PCs. If you’d like to get your hands on this latest, they just went on sale starting at $999 on Dell’s website.
