"Great Performance, Subtle Style, Poor speaker quality"
Pros: 4GB of ram and 500GB Hard drive plus the Intel Core 2Dual Processor at 2.0GHz make this laptop a great performance machine. It has a more matte finish as opposed to the other glossy laptops that make using the mouse difficult.

Summary: Great performance for the money, good design! read more
