My first laptop.

Well spec'd, as the description says. I've upgraded mine to 2GB of ram and I must say, the speed is amazing. It hardly ever freezes or crashes. The graphics card could be improved, but remember this isn't a gaming laptop. The display is crystal clear and pretty big, amazing for watching movies.
This makes an excellent media pc. Grab itunes and a dvd player, along with some speakers and you have a portable media centre. The wireless card has never lost a connection and I've had mine for a year.

The "No Trialware" bit isn't entirely true. It comes with a suite of software called Roxio creator, which starts up with the pc and slows it down. I've uninstalled everything that came with it and replaced with alternatives, but it's all to taste.

Don't worry about speed, performance or price. This is an amazing computer.
