Advantages: Good size and quality

Disadvantages: Possibly Battery life

Ive found this is a great laptop for surfing the internet and its compact size means that it can be tucked away at home when not in use or taken on trips away from home. The size still provides a big enough screen to view movies or your favourite programmes on BBC iplayer

The only real disadvantage I have found is the battery life. Mine seems to only last 30mins at the most, but as my laptop was second hand ti may simply be that it needs a new one! Another thing that bothers me is the waste of space near the mouse. Does it really need two sets of buttons for the mouse?

Other than that, great basic laptop with all the features needed for a first time buyer. The sound and picture quality are good and it lasts a good while on your lap without heating up too much and burning your legs off.

Summary: Good basic starter laptop
