1/22/2011 5:59:46 PM Slower performance even at only 50% of hard drive full. The sound was promoted as being GREAT for movie watching, etc. It even has a remote to use for movie playing. The sound is low. too low to enjoy a movie without amplification.

2/12/2010 8:01:59 PM At first it did not require a lot of restarting, however lately it has. I think it has something to do with my antivirus protection, but I am not positive. This computer overall has been my favorite computer.

3/10/2010 7:18:50 PM This is a great laptop but I have notice lately that is runs slower and freezes at times, I guess the free antivirus and spyware I downloaded doesn't work that great thats why I bought this one, hopfully it tunes up my labtop into tiptop shape.

9/29/2010 12:51:04 PM There is a problem with the picture on the desktop fluctuating, like there is interference. I don't know whether this is due to a fault in the video area or whether it is caused by outside electrical interference. A perpetualnotice says that this system in not compatable with certain buttons, but I cannot find a cure and can't get rid of the notice.

8/25/2009 4:26:03 AM Nice looking system. Fast performance. CPU in this model is better than comparable, and even more current systems. CPU has a thermal wattage rating of 25, vs. 35 and higher for some other processors. Expanadable to 8GB RAM. Integrated graphics (Intel 4500) keep the system running cooler, and don't drain battery as much as dedicated graphics chips. The notebook is very solidly built with firm plastics throughout, and almost no flexing of the housing. The silver keyboard is easier to see in low light conditions than the black keyboards on other models, although it would be nice if it was backlit, however most notebook keyboards are not. The touch sensitive backlit multimedia controls are attractive, and work well. The keyboard is easy to use, and feels firm and provides good feedback when typing. Most of the LED lights on the system are a nice white color, with the wireless network light being a nice blue color when enabled. Red is used for the mute and wireless disabled status. The touchpad also works well, despite being coated with a different material than many other touchpads. The 4 provided USB ports are plenty, and one USB is a shared eSATA port for connecting external hard drives. A dedicated docking station port is also included. The dual Altec Lansing speakers provide very clear and surprisingly loud sound for radio, TV, and even music, and this notebook even comes with a small remote control which fits into the card reader slot on the site of the system when not in use. The notebook is fairly light and easy to carry around. Overall, I am extremely happy with this system.

7/3/2012 8:08:19 AM When running properly it's a pleasure to work with. Have had problems the last three days and this is the first time it's worked since working with DougBender of your Technical Support. He's been super patient with a 75-yr-old non techy. We'll see if everything else runs as in the past. Can't answer the next question honestly because I haven't run it since scanning which I couldn't do the last three days..
