Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Since I bought this product, I have been having issues with this computer. It is slow, it freezes constantly, and my hard drive went out in less than 7 months. Do not waste your time buying this product.

Good buy for the money
By Happy Scrapper from Wisconsin on 2/11/2008
Pros:
Good Memory, Good Speed, Quality Display
Cons:
Poorly Designed Keyboard, Short Battery Life
Describe Yourself:
Busy mom, Computer scrapbooker
Primary use:
Personal

For the money, this is a nice laptop with speed and memory not found in even some higher price models. The graphics are great for games.
The sound quality for music is just average...a bit on the "tinny" sound.
The touchpad and typing drive me crazy...the cursor jumps backwards when I type and puts the letters in the wrong place. The touchpad is too sensitive for gaming...it "clicks" on part of the game when I'm not even touching it.
I also think there is way too much plastic (as opposed to a more durable material) in the construction of this, and I'm sure if I ever drop it it would crack.
I would still recommend it and am glad I bought it.

Not that impressive
By Computer Girl from Albany, NY on 1/13/2008
Pros:
Durable
Cons:
Poor asthetics

Okay I just got this and after one week i am not satisfied with the fact that I haev to disable the touchpad when typing (mid typing I notice the keys are jumping back ). I also don't like the slow to respond memory when I have more than one window open or am doing different things at once. Most of all the sound quality for music is POOR. I listen to lots of music and need a high quality sound card.

I do like the vid quality, and like the easy buttons at the top but I will go back to Radio Shack and try the HP laptop.
