Costumer Reviews
Picked this up at a local retailer for a mere $233 to replace a P4 desktop running XP in our kitchen. While I wasn't looking for a notebook, I could not resist the price tag in order to declutter our kitchen counter. Dual core processor is slower than the P4, according to Windows 7 ratings, but video is far superior, sound is ok, good enough to replace the desktop speakers. I have always had trouble with XP hybirnation, so using the desktop required a full bootup since I shutdown the desktop when not in use. Win7 and this notebook are ready in seconds...There are certainly better (faster) notebooks out there for $100 to $150 more, but for the price and its functionality as a web browser, video player and email computer, I couldn't be happier with this notebook...Battery life is supposed to be 5.5hrs, so far that is a disappointing 2 to 2.5 hrs on full brightness...may get better with some cycles, but again, since it will be primaraly be used plugged in, not a huge deal...Bit slow, nice clear 15.6" screen, 5 lbs weight is good and I was shocked at finding out that a memory upgrade from 2Gb to 6Gb was only $20. I was going to wait a while on this, since it seems to defeat the $233 price, but I went ahead with this easy upgrade...I also plan on taking advantage of the built in bluetooth with a compatible mouse
I've had it a week, and if I havn't smashed it against the wall, beaten someone with it, or shot it by next week I'll be suprised. It comes with this Norton "anti-virus" which seems a lot more like just a virus to me, shutting down the computer all the time (I had to re-install windows just to write this review) because I cut it off to try to avoid some of the "updates" it decides to install every few hours that requires the computer to shut off. If I have any spelling mistakes, it's the computers fault because I can barely see what I'm doing since the the moust sometimes works, but sometimes decides to zoom out so far I need a magnifying glass to read it, depending on it's mood I guess.Maybe all laptops are this bad, I don't know but whoever designed it, right now I would really like...I need to calm down.
