Dell Vostro 15 3510

Dell's Vostro series has long been positioned as a budget-friendly alternative to the Latitude line, catering to home users and occasional office workers. However, with the latest 15-3510 model, I believe Dell is attempting to blur these lines, potentially misleading customers into thinking it's a viable business device.
