    the cpu is pretty week and graphics card woulnt do many games but if you just need to surf etc then it is pretty decent at a damn good price.

    frankly i would prefer a pentium M or duo but i really do use my cpu for stuff, i would defiantly rip vista off and put xp on though, you can legally uses the key as a downgrade and save a lot of hassle.

    I have a very similar one ....one issue which no-one told me about is that it has a super sensitive mouse.

    Had to totally change my typing style to ensure nothing ever touches the mouse pad, or all hell breaks loose :mad:

    its a slow memory hog and drivers are problematic, there are lots of other technical aspects but for surfing etc it is useable but then so is xp and 2000.
