Advantages: Nice enough looking - v. cheap Disadvantages: Old, slow

She not that old so I didn't want her to play full gory games - but on this great little machine she can play all the classic games.
She can also take it around with her. Although it is quite heavy - get it in a backpack and you hardly notice it.

I bought this laptop for my little girl a couple of months ago. She not that old so I didn't want her to play full gory games - but on this great little machine she can play all the classic games.
She can also take it around with her. Although it is quite heavy - get it in a backpack and you hardly notice it.
One of it's best fetures is the battery life - it just keeps going on and on and on - like that squirel or whatever it is in the battery ad or advert or advertisment (that has to be one of the only words which can be shortened twice) if you can think of any others please leave them in the comments thing - right after you press the outstanding review button.
The speed is poor - about 200 mhz - but you get enough omph (great word) (shout it out loud - go on do it) to get you through any golden oldies. I have also got a basic internet connection on it which is good - nice and educational.
The laptop may be cheap but it deffinatly does not feel it - it feels quaility in your hands.
The hard drive is okay - it obviously could be better at 3gigs but it is alright and the small size keeps the weight down.
All in all a great laptop for the price. If you are looking for something to do the basics then get it.
