Gary, Sheffield

Score 10.0/10

Good points:: Boots up quickly, runs very quietly and has a really bright screen and responsive keyboard. Bought as a present for my son, and is much better to use than our main laptop.
Bad points:: Shiny finish shows finger marks easily but no big deal.

Good points:: It is 11.3" so being bigger than a netbook it is easier to use. Comes with a 250GB hardrive means adequate storage and it has a dual core processor give it speed. Got at a great price from Tesco Online so a highly reccomended purchase.

Chris, Manchester General home user

Score 10.0/10

Good points:: Great Keyboard, the larger (than standard netbook) screen looks fab when playing back movies / iplayer. I know it's good because I've started using it in preference rather than bother powering-up the main PC
Bad points:: Battery life isn't great and apparently the memory doesn't run at full speed - although it does everything that I want it to do. The trapezoid touch pad takes a bit of getting used to - I still find myself resting a finger on the active pad rather than by the side.
