Rob, Lancashire , “IT professional”
Score 8.0/10+ Good value. It's small and light with a good battery life. The screen is bright and reasonably readable in adverse conditions. There's plenty of hard drive for the price and a dual core processor that seems perfectly adequate.
- I would have preferred fewer signs of use - despite it being a rework. The keyboard and mouse pad feel a little 'lightweight'.

Score 8.0/10+ I wanted a lightweight notebook to give me email access and store and display my digital photos while travelling. This refurbished model offered the best valueI could find.
