It also protects the display against damage from the keyboard.

I'd like to say a few things that I feel are important to know about this laptop before buying it.
Firstly, the spec is more than up to running 95% of programs in common use today. The dual core processor means that you get 2 processors for the price of one, effectively.
The one problem that it has, which many cheaper laptops share, is that it comes with limited memory. However, in contrast to what the previous reviewer said, I found it easy to buy an upgrade fairly cheaply, at £14 from Ebuyer. This upgrade sped up the computer quite significantly.
Overall, the computer runs well and for the time being seems to be OK. The main downside to using this laptop is that I worry that it will break down on me because it's not made by a manufacturer known for good quality
Advantages: light, clear screen, fast battery charging, DVD writer, wireless Disadvantages: battery running time
Had this machine for around a month now, and found the machine to be a great starter machine, or "one for the kids". Whilst it can't be considered a games machine, it is great for surfing websites, playing games on websites and doing email. Have found that the pre-installed Windows Vista Home Basic to be exactly that - 'basic'.
This machine with its DVD writer and Atheros based Wireless miniPCI card make it an excellent machine to get to grips.
... ...was an easy process, as all the changeable hardware is conveniently under the covers on the underside and so changing the RAM, Hard disk or wireless card is very easy to do.
I also have installed a more upmarket Vista, and then the machine runs the new Aero interface with ease (after making the available RAM in the bios 256MB).
The machine runs Linux also, however in order to get Wireless to work, you must use 'ndiswrapper' until the nice guys ...

Advantages: price,price,price Disadvantages: LCD, lack of scroll, weak GPU performance
I bought this laptop one month ago as I needed one for university. I have chosen this one as it was the cheapest decent laptop. I bought for something around 280pounds from an on-line shop in Romania. In the package there was the laptop, AC adapter, network cable, a CD with drivers and one with Linux Knoppix. The first impression was that I bought it at a fair price. The plastic looks cheap but the keyboard is fine. First day I used it only connected ... ...with me at work. When running on battery the LCD is awful because it looks so much darker and you can barely recognize it. That's the first negative point. The second one is that you don't have a scroll and as I am surfing a lot on the internet it is really crap. If you think of playing games I would not recommend it as it has the weakest graphic adapter possible at the moment. It will have the performance of a geforce 2 or even worse.
Overall, ...

Advantages: Cheap and functional Disadvantages: Useless set up guide
Owned it for five days now but it took three days to fully suss it out - I am not an experienced laptop owner. The machine is very compact and excellent value for money. It does however have the most diabolically inadequate instructions I've ever come accross.
Battery life is closer to 1hr 15mins than the 1.33 quoted. No warning when it is about to go blank, but it does leave the settings correct for when you plug it in to the mains. I'm new to ...
