Great Computer for the priceby liquidsquidstudios - November 26, 2007
Pros: Good features, great DVD playing, Decent speaker quality. Good option for desktop replacement. Beautiful screen
Cons: Not great for games, Although with my RAM @ 2 gigs, I can still play Advance War Figher 2 reasonbly well. Kind of Heavy
Review: I love this computer. I use it for work and play. I have upgraded the RAM to 2 gigs, and it seems to be running fine. I use the machine for alot of office tasks, but it still lets me run media on the 19" flat screen I hook it up to. Have had no problems with Windows Vista, and I am running Office 2007 without any problems.
