Dell has extended the line of budget machines that they’re releasing every now and then, with the Vostro V131. The features offer options to spoil you starting with an Intel Core i3/Core i5 processor, up to 6GB DDR3 RAM, DVD burner option, storage up to 500GB, USB 3.0, Wi-Fi, long battery life of up to 9.5 hours, a microphone, two HDMI ports, a couple of USB 3.0 ports and a hybrid USB 2.0/eSATA connector. If you want to strip it down some more then there’s a Celeron machine up for grabs.

The Celeron version of the Vostro V131 would cost you $499. The i3/i5 options would cost you $599/$799.
