+ High spec and good looks, easy to use and great price

- battery life is aweful - 2 hours if your really really lucky, its also too big for a laptop. we've had 15inch before and that sits ok - this thing needs to be on the tabke not the lap.

+ Great graphics, light weight.

- Mouse pad is in wrong place, and mousepad short cuts are a pain, finally there is no scroll bar. But this is all personal preference, the computer as a function is amazing.

Score 9.0/10

+ The laptop is really fast and as i bought it with a graphics card already installed ( a radeon) it made running games very easy and quick,it handles all rpogrammes smoothly,though i have never tried to run anything that is incredibly demanding but for casual use including work and most games it performs very well.

- the battery life is a little short but for the most part i use it in the house so i can have it plugged in.

+ For a reconditioned unit,it does exactly what i wanted it to do, not sure about vista but there's always the option for windows 7. but overall good package.

- battery life doesn't seem to be that great, but to be honest haven't really tried it out mainly for home use, seems to last for about and hour and a half.

Colin, Glasgow

Score 9.0/10

+ Its got a really nice screen with almost HD quality graphics for running DVD's etc. I watched TV shows on it and it was really good. Vista runs at a decent speed as the laptop has 3GB of memory. Nice big hard drive for storing all my data. Not too heavy considering the size of the screen.

- The keyboard!! It has to be the worst keyboard I have ever used. It has a flat design and the keys don's seem to make proper contact. With saying that there is a separate numeric keypad which is useful. The keyboard is functional and does the job but I would not like to spend all day on it.
