Advantages: Good design, built in connections

Disadvantages: touch pad control, weight, no television connections

I'm running a series 1200 model 12XL505 running windows ME. I like the way the system is set up and I've not had any real problems in the 4 months I've owned it. I didn't care for the touch-pad built in as they are a bit sensitive and are not friendly to big fingers so I'm running an external optical mouse. The DVD played videos well on a 17" external monitor using the built in connection however TV/VCR RCA connections would have been a nice built in addition. The speakers are not the highest quality and are not recommended for music however voice and sound effects are acceptable. The weight of the system is good however it isn't light enough to carry around on a constant basis. All in all I really like the system and would recommend it to anyone looking for a system.
