This review doesn't tell me anything of your personal experiences. All there are is figures which anyone could probably find by searching on a search engine. You need to tell us what the laptop is really about, what no website but only experience could tell us. -=- Hoethir -=-

Ollydv 07.04.2005 22:11

you need to include more on your personal opinions of the laptop, and add them to your review, as anyone can find out a bunch of specifications from Google.

Bit more personal opinion would be good. Always handy to know the faults, such as the battery life.
