The dual core processor is very responsive even with windows vista running.
9gb of the drive is used for the recovery partition.
The touch pad has a vertical tochbar which allows you to scroll the pages. a very useful feature. there is a button with which you can lock the touchpad.

at the top of the keypad there are quick launch buttons provided.-for the dvd player and volume control buttons.
the 17" display is bright and gives clean, clear pictures.
