Good Laptop but....... [Posted on 2008-09-03]
This is a good laptop but don't expect it to brake any speed records. It'g good for general every day use, and light game play. It uses the Pentium 4 Dual Core which is a older technology. The laptop comes with lots of trialware/bloatware. I took mine to OfficeDepot and had them remove the junk and put a year copy of McAfee on my system. If you are buying it for your kid for school this is a good one but they will not really be able to play high end games.
Likes:
17" screen its big and bright
almost a full size keyboard with keypad
it's quiet - I have other laptops and the fan can get quite noisy
battery life is good I have gotten around 3 hours that is with my screen dim and not using the CD/DVD drive. watching a movie I got a little over a hour.
light - some of my 15.4" laptop is much heavier then this one
160 Gb Hard Drive - more then enough for the average user
Dislikes:
sound the built in speakers are under powered and the volume is low
no HDMI or other HD outputs on it
built in graphics card is good for everything but not really for games
Vista Home Premium 32-bit I would like to had seen Vista Home Premium 64-bit pre-installed
keyboard - although its big the feel of the keys are cheap
Don't get me wrong this is a good laptop for its price but if you want to play games or run graphic intensive programs, I would suggest getting one with a discreet graphics card.
