Brother P-Touch 2480

Advantages: Build, near silent, roomy, price, looks
Disadvantages: Front is plastic not brushed metal as pictures would suggest

...What a beautiful case. To my surprise after filling it with Micro ATX components the case was almost silent. Not at all obtrusive when watching films or playing games or even surfing. The 2 huge side fans have 3 switchable speeds and the hard drive bays have silicon mounts so the drives dont touch any metal, another superb touch to remove vibrational noise. The front panel looks like brushed metal but unlike it's more expensive brother with the display, it's actually plastic. It does however pull off the mettal look very well indeed. General build is excellent, 2 USB's on the front with headphone and mic sockets. 2 large bays at front also. Very easy access from one thumb screw and the top lid. It's standard DVD player width but slightly chunky height wise at 5.5"... Read review

It comes with highly technological features. I will call it a student companion and will recomend it for highly moble students because its strage capacity of 60GB is enough to cater for all school projects. There is enough space for downloading educational programs as fast as possible, emails assignments etc. The final joy that my new lab top brings me is its use for presentations because of its diverse range of compatibily features. This unique labtop is truely a different kind. Below... Read review
