+ Its good for things that need to be done fast.It is also very easy to use.

- When you leave it the screen will go blank then when you get it back on it will be at log on.

+ good product for the price,

- instruction manual not very informative, had to ask some one how to create a back up. apart from that good laptop.

+ easy to use

- having to purchase microsoft soft ware

+ fast running laptop, perfect for internet use, ideal 1st laptop, slim and lightweight design, very good quality and money well spent

- battery life short,

+ The laptop does the baisics fine. Ok if you dont want to do alot on it.

- The battery doesn't last as long as the documentation says. You can't store too much on it.

+ Affordable useability, does what it says on the tin!

- None, for what it is!

+ Good value basic laptop. Out of the box and up and running with internet connection in moments. Ticks all the boxes for its specification.

- It's on the slow side, but hey, you get what you pay for.

+ I was looking for a machine to use for my daughter for schoolwork - internet browsing - email - photography. Gaming was definately not on the menu. Having downloaded SUN's ODF software (free MS Office look alike) onto it - makes this a very competitively priced package. It's spec is perfect for the job it was intended (just wish it was a little quicker) Worked straight out of the box - seems well made - my daughter likes the curved layout of the keyboard.

- Realised after purchasing that it needs 1GB RAM just to run Vista ......and it only has 1GB RAM. Clock won't keep time !?!? Black was my daughters (and my) least favourite colour choice....it only comes in.....black.

+ Compact, easy to carry, good entry level laptop. Reasonable price for this machine. It was bought as a present for someone without a great deal of computing knowledge, who is delighted with it.

- Battery life, but this is normal or machines within this price range.

+ Lightweight

- price

+ Does the job - everything I expected it to do.

- It is black and I prefer more tasteful colours. People like different colours - I can tell from my ebay research.

+ it works

- keyboard a strange shape. irregular

+ Price & performance

- Weight

+ a very good laptop for the money. battery not as bad as reported in fact pretty good.well made hence heavy'ish. no problems with speed yet.

- probably only thing i can think of is the dvd drive it's a not too smooth on open/close.

+ Well exceeded my expectations - delighted with the product.

+ just wanted a simple lap-top for an over 50 beginner! this fits the bill.

- Haven't found one yet.

+ Ideal for personal use

- None

+ Looks good. Small and compact but full size keyboard.

- Came with Vista. Would have prefered XP which is much better.

+ After a lot of searching this seemed good value with 2G memory, which is needed with Vista. Bought it for my daughter and she is delighted with it. obviously not as large as some laptops but that has its advantages and the screen is very clear. Easy to setup and use, but I have had a previous laptop myself in 2001 (things have changed a bit!!). Fast delivery.

- Personally not keen on Norton Antivirus and installed alternative available from Laptops Direct which doesn't slow the machine down or seem to be so in your face. Have to pay for Office after 60 day trial expires but at least that gives you 60 days to decide.

+ excellent value - completes all normal computing tasks with ease

- no web cam

+ Huge 2gb RAM with space to add more, Superb crisp and clear screen even though its 14.1in it doesnt feel too small. The keyboard is laid out in an ergonomic design. The laptop is smaller and a bit lighter than your average laptop and therefore with a bag is quite easy to carry around.

- The mouse touchpad is a bit under-sensitive and not quite smooth enough to run your fingers over without a bit of friction, and there's no button to act as a scroll button that you'd find on a proper mouse. Also I had to pay for a "factory settings" cd which ended up just being a copied disc.

+ light, good spec, easy to use, great value

- none

+ very pleased, good value

- none

+ Compact light design, clear screen and reasonably fast.

- Not that keen on Windows Vista but sure I'll get used to it!

Good value for money.

+ Size and weight
