I have used this laptop for many years now as my work laptop, I have had absolutely to problems with reliability, or ease of use.

The only downside I find is that the mouse control is dreadful, but as I connect a proper mouse to it thankfully I havent had to use it too much.

So from a reliability point of view, its been switched on at least 40 hours every week of the year and it just keeps chugging along.
Screen quality is clear for the age of the laptop, not up to the new mirror image screen, but quite capable for day to day activities of word, excel, info explorer etc.

Standard Processor is the Intel Pentium 1.4ghz, with 256Ram installed, although my work laptop has had the memory doubled, apparently to help XP process. Standard battery should last 6 hours on a full charge.

40GB IDE hard drive is included, with a weight of only 4.9 lbs is not the heaviest on the market. The measurements are (W x D x H)-- 12.1 in x 9.8 in x 1.2 in

Other standard items :-


14.1 in TFT active matrix, max 1024 x 768
AGP 4x
Sound card
Network adapter
Fax / modem Integrated

I would certainly recommend on of these as a workhorse laptop. I carry mine around every day in a rucksack and it hasnt grumbled about it yet.
It feels like its one of the family, nice piece of kit for the money, not the fastest piece of kit on the market, but neither is a 747 jet, but it does the job it was designed for.
