Review: I brought this, as I worked for Sainsbury's at the time and we had 20% off as it was Easter. Also there was some sort of other reduction so it was £500, basically I paid £400. For the spec, I would say I haven't found anything to match it to this present day. However in a few months that will probably change. Anyway I'm a student and always needing a PC whenever I can't get one, this looked a decent solution.

You don't get any real programs on it, so you'll have to get open office, but I can't stand it, so I was lucky enough to download ultimate office dot co dot uk, as a student until end of April, for 50quid..not bad er?

I'd also recommend Cowon Audio, as it plays everything including flac and runs perfectly on the laptop.

To be honest though if I was paying the full price I'd look elsewhere. I'm going to try and upgrade the ram to 4gb and get another graphics card!

Another bargain was a portable hard drive 160gb for £50 too... I would recommend this, as long as you can get it for a steal of a price..


Pros: great spec for price! Good battery life :)
Cons: 1.5Ghz processor, limited access to rear USB points, only two more USB's on the side. Weak wireless, quiet internal speakers
Score: 8/10
