About
When you first get this laptop it comes with The Laptop, a HDMI cable and I got it free with the official case. This laptop came installed with Windows Vista Home Premium this was my first time with vista so i was excited to receive it, When you first boot it up you follow the on screen instructions which are easy to follow until you arrive at you home screen.

Use
I straight away fell in love with the laptop, it is everything i needed. Now down to business. The speed of the laptop is good, It connects to the internet very well it has fantastic Bluetooth that i use all the time for my Logitech Mouse, The keyboard is very easy to type on and the keys are not too small or too big there perfect. The Track Pad is of good quality and works well but i have always preferred using a mouse than a Track Pad.

Appearance
I really like the look of the laptop and think the colour scheme is really good and looks really smart and professional. It has a really good volume control on the left hand side which turns a big wheel to change volume and a wheel on the right with controls for various tasks eg.back, skip and internet. It has a blue lights under the buttons, not on the keyboard, that look really nice with the laptop.

Features
The laptop has an array of good features such as a fingerprint reader which you can use to log on to your computer and to save passwords on websites so you swipe your finger to automatically enter your password. The Tv tuner works fantastically and works ready well with windows media player which is installed already. You can record programs and record whole series you can pause live TV and rewind to watch an event again and then continue watching form when you started. The HD-DVD drive works perfectly and is good to watch movie's on. It can play Hd- dvd, dvd and CDs on it.

Slots
The Laptop has a total of 5 USB slots, 1 HDMI socket, Headphone and speaker socket, 1 Ethernet, 1 SD card slot, 1 Ariel slot and a few more of which i do not know the names of.
