    Advantages Advantages Simple, cheap, nice looking and does the job

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Celeron -M lacks speedstepping

    Like the other reviewer I got my P28 off Ebay for around £200. It has the basic spec we come to expect these days - wireless internet, modest amount of RAM and hard drive space and a processor that does the job. The P28 is nice to look at and the screen is a good size at 15 inches - fine for watching DVD's etc although the latest XVGA laptops are better. The specs handle XP very well and the system is responsive throughout. The wireless network card is suprisingly sensative and picks up a signal where a Linksys adapter I have can't. Battery life is medeocre - mainly because the aweful Celeron ... more

    Advantages Advantages Nicely Designed, Ease of Use

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Quite heavy and not very portable

    I bought this on ebay for under £300 which i thought was a great price for a decent make. The laptop has a nice finish and is well designed too which made is even more appealing to me. The laptop itself has a modest spec as it has an Intel Celeron 1.5 ghz cpu, 256 ddr sd ram , 40 GB IDE hard disk, cd rw/dvd drive, as well as a 15" lcd screen. It weighs 2.9 kg which makes it around the same weight as most of the laptops on the market just now. It also has a built in wireless card allowing you to connect to a wireless network which is handy instead of having to buy a separate card which takes ... more

    Advantages Advantages now available cheaply on ebay, good laptop

    Disadvantages Disadvantages on the heavy side, 2-3 hours battery life, DVD read only

    I recently purchased a P28 second hand, as I needed a laptop for holiday and travelling use. I bought a 1.5 GHz machine for under £200 on ebay. It has 256MB RAM and 40GB hard drive. The screen is clear and the keyboard pleasant. The trackpad mouse works well - and I only occasionally move the mouse pointer by mistake. As a Linux user I installed Ubuntu on it - and it went on cleanly. It comes with enough USB ports, a Wifi card, and built in network port and modem. It's a shame that it hasn't got a DVD burner, but it does write CDs. You will either find it with Microsoft Windows XP Home or ... more
