The Dell Latitude E6420 is a business-oriented laptop released in August 2011. It came with 2nd generation Intel Core processors, DDR3 memory, and Intel or NVIDIA graphics options. Up to 3 batteries can be attached to this machine too.

This laptop originally shipped with Windows 7 Professional. When I bought it, Windows 10 Pro was installed, but I reinstalled Windows 7 with the Dell Recovery Media.

I have not done any hardware upgrades on this laptop yet, though a SSD replacement will be coming soon. Other than that, I might upgrade the RAM at some point, but the battery and everything else still works fine.
