Advantages: Good speakers, excellent processing ability

Disadvantages: Hardware is very unreliable & battery life is poor.

This laptop falls apart!!

I've had so many problems with it in the year that I've owned it - I really wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

The disc drive is very temperamental - as I type it is not working! Additionally, the speakers sometimes just stop working, very randomly, then come on again without warning. The battery life is also very, VERY poor.

A positive aspect of this laptop is that it is very fast and can handle many applications at once. I love music so am constantly downloading from the internet and this seems to have no effect on other applications such as watching movies, using word or playing games.

When they are working, the speakers are very loud and the controls for music on the keyboard are wonderful.

Sadly, despite all the positive aspects of this machine, I have to stick to my guns and advise you against purchasing one - it is too unreliable and I'm sure there are other cheaper and superior machines out there.

Summary: A nice machine that sadly has several fundamental flaws - do not purchase!
