Looks to me that the processor, hard drive size and Video are different right off the start. Neither system comes with Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Powerpoint etc). They come with Microsoft Works 8 instead. You can always upgrade components on either system to meet your needs though.
There really isn't anything "wrong" with either system, they both look great. The only thing that I would change for sure would be the warranty. Both come with "Return to Depot" warranty. That means that if something were to go wrong with your system, you would have to send it in to be fixed. I prefer the "Next Business Day" warranty, which sends a technician to my house or business with the part to fix it. Both require that you troubleshoot over the phone first, but that's painless.
I'd maybe add more RAM and perhaps get the higher resolution LCD screen... just in case you are going to be playing games that require a high resolution. On that note, the 1521 comes standard (at no extra charge) with the ATI RADEON? Xpress1270 HyperMemory graphics card, while the 1520's highest option for an extra $200 is the 256MB NVIDIA ?GeForce?8600M GT graphics card.
I think over-all they are both good systems, I'd probably go with the 1521 myself... and I'd go with the Ruby Red!
Happy shopping!What is the difference between a Dell Inspiron 1520 and a Dell Inspiron 1521 ?i like Dell
1521 is based on AMD ATI M690T
1520 is based on Intel “Santa Rosa” with Core 2 Duo
