It is fast enough for most home users and equipped with enough memory to play the latest games. (it also has 3 extra memory slots for upgrading). As standard with most home computers, also included in the package is an intel mouse and keyboard and standard packard bell speakers.
This machine also has...

Advantages: Easy to upgrade. Quiet. Disadvantages: Outdated. No DVI. Little RAM.
This is an unbelievably fast and very good looking laptop. The finish on it is very nice and the shape of it looks good from any angle. Another great thing about this is the 320GB hard drive because you can store so much on there wothout having to worry... more
