Score 6.0/10

+ nothing stands out, it is a descent laptop with a good specification

- dvd-rw is rubbish it fails more disks than it actually burns - also at times it runs very slow but i have managed to sort this out by adding more memory

Score 7.0/10

+ Basic cheap lap top, but with all the necessary features.

- Although the processor is a fairly high spec the lap top seems a little slow, maybe due to the amount of preloaded software.
