Advantages: The strong case, a quality screen, DVD-multi drive, port-replicator connection.

Disadvantages: Pre-installed OS is too resource-consumptioning, only 2 USB 2.0 ports.

This notebook model is equipped with processor wich has good performance for the owner purpose: Intel Core Duo with a frequency of 1 GHz and 2 MB Cache - fully cover the needs of mobile users. Availability 1 GB DDR-II (one module) - not the best or even not a desirable rate for a modern personal computer. Although the memory is possible to expand up to 2 GB, but it still not big for a laptop with such parameters. Hasten to reassure potential buyers: if you are not going to launch rockets into space, this configurations will satisfact you at all needs. The laptop is equipped with 60 GB Memory (let's not call it the hard disk drive). This volume allows to lunch several operating systems with many users that have they own media resourses on it (videos, music, photos). And for one person - the perfect amount. Surprise! The producer put into this notebook a DVD SuperMulti drive, and did it very original. I have to reassure potential users that this class notebooks are bought not for the quality modern games and viewing videos of high resolution, but only for business needs! The result: really good image, very good quality and good performance when viewing a DVD. But that's all. Thank you very much for Integrated WiFi (B / G), a fax modem (supports V.92). Network Interface Card, PCMCIA, only two port USB 2.0 - an integral part of any notebook, and Mini Dsub provides an opportunity to consider the content on the big screen. I do not know what did the producers want to say setting the Windows Vista Business, but the technical characteristics of this model is not allow you to fully appreciate all the opportunities of Vista OS: 12.1" XGA display with 1024x768 resolution more appropriate for a Windows XP. Integrated Li-Ion battery allows You working on up to 11 hours, and compact size (27x21x5 cm, 1.2 kg) and a solid magnesium body will give you ease and confidence movements.

Summary: this laptop will give you ease and confidence movements
