I bought a used Dell Inspiron 3720 about 7 years ago.
It has been my main (and only) computer for the last 6 years.
I have had no issues other than the internal DVD drive failing.
Do you ever use the touchpad and keyboard on it? My experience with Dell's of that era were they were essentially unusable without an external mouse and keyboard. I remember so many people carrying mice and keyboards with them to meetings.
I have used the builtin keyboard and touchpad (e.g. when I am at a library), and they work fine. Normally I do use an external keyboard (http://cfaj.ca/keyboard.jpg), mouse, screen (49"!) and speakers (Harmon Kardon Soundsticks III). -- Chris F.A.
