Advantages: Speed, Aesthetics, Battery Life

Disadvantages: Memory, Vista is not the best thing ever.

I review this as someone whose knowledge of computer's is not strong, so my impressions are entirely opinion based and not on numbers.
The laptop runs Vista but can be updated to 7.
Fairly lightweight and small for a laptop (I've seen far bigger) means that I have taken this to school and all around the house to use. The battery life is fairly impressive at just over a couple of hours, and the laptop is fairly fast until you clog it up with lots of stuff on your hard drive. However, my dad has since put in some new RAM (?) which has made it a lot faster, he tells me this was easy to do. If you're an audiophile the amount of memory is simply not enough at 120GB, and I have since upgraded to an external hard disk as well. It runs many games such as Football Manager 10 and Grand Theft Auto with relative ease so is good for gaming. The laptop does everything you would expect to do with the latest Microsoft Office products, and everything can be found very easily. It makes minimum noise so long as you clean the fan every now and then.
This is a good first laptop and an excellent one for uni use I would imagine, I will certainly be taking it with me.
