"Nice little laptop"
Pros: Compact size, 3 USB ports, Runs quiet
Cons: Battery life of 2.5 hours,
Summary: At first, I wasn't too pleased with the purchasing plan since I thought I bought the computer during a no interest for one year promotion but after a month I happened to notice a 21% interest charge.
Anyway, came with plenty of bloat ware which I am still deleting after 6 months of ownership. I needed to buy a decent photo editing software, a street finder program and encylocpedia since these were lacking.
I wish it came with a better video card for gaming but perhaps laptops are really not tended for high end gaming performance.
I got a 100 G hard drive but I would recommend at least 120 G - Vista is a resource hog and get at least 2 G of RAM.
Plays Dvd's well and probably burns them ok too.
First time using Wi-Fi and I love it but make sure you buy/sample multiple internet security programs (log on to Download.com for trail Spy/Adware programs and reviews).
Little features like the dictionary and snipping tool come in handy.
I think this laptop is marketed mainly for college students but it performs fine for me.
