As some of you might have noticed, there has been no mention of an optical drive. Well that’s because the Dell Vostro V131 doesn’t come with an internal one and in as much as they think it ain’t so necessary, I STILL DO think it is! I just don’t like external optical drives.

Pricing for the new VOSTRO starts at $499 but starting with the Intel Celeron Dual core. Upgrade to the Intel Core i3 or i5 processor and other optional features and the price goes close to $799.

The Dell VOSTRO V131 is readily available for sale at Dell’s Official Website.
