+ Mostly all good, ideal for children (purchased as a birthday present for our 8-year old), light-weight and easy to use.
- Battery life seems a little short.

Ian, Beaminster, “I love my family.”
+ It's a very good price. For a first computer my son love is it. The size is also good as it's not a big cumbersome laptop that he has to lug about. Speed is good, screen is good.
- I thought it came with a built in webcam and only when I read the small print did it say - only on some models, or words to that extent. For an adult the keyboard can be a bit fiddly, but you know that when you buy it after all it's small. I wish I had got it with Windows XP as the desktop is a bit confusing and some of the things are much harder to do, such as MSN Messenger is different and very limiting.

+ Easy to use on the move and travel with, looks great!
- Poor battery life - main drawback. Get less than 2 hours on the 2G - sent the first one back for this but on getting the replacement this seems the norm :-( Needs to be double that to make it truly a portable option.

Jay, Belfast, “evil genius”
+ Took this laptop on a 3 month break around S.E Asia and using it now in Vietnam to type this. Very portable and lightweight, easy to use, lots of features, great for watching Divx movies on, Plug converys for asian use easy
- Very slow for pictures (like flicking them around), battery doesnt seem to last long. If you can put Windows on it, then you can use movie maker to compress videos to upload easy if on the road like me.

+ Small and compact.
- Wireless connection is a bit of a pain as have to invest more money to buy the connector to connect to internet.

+ Portable, easy to use. Very reasonably priced!
- Small keyboard won't suit all. Small screen takes time to get used to.

Stephen, Bristol, “An ICT/Government Professional”
+ linux size/weight solid state for speed of startup/shutdown keyboard quite optimal for size low price simplicity ease of internet/wifi access coolness factor chunky/solid appearance good battery life widely publicised and excellent, positive write-ups for good 'image' styleish good free apps like OOo and skype which work straightaway lots of input/output like usb, network, etc and sd card
- maybe keyboard and screen could be a little bigger (even if it adds to weight) touchpad sometimes does not have effect and have to repeat action a bit too much emphasis on children as users sd card triggers file manager every time laptop starts, not just first time inserted

Ann, Swansea, “professional IT female”
+ Easy to use, light to carry - fits in my handbag!
- I expected it to have an organiser, but it didn't. And trying to get one, even via the help line, was so complicated, I gave up.

+ Size and quality was the reason I bought this computer, it is up to expectations on both. Looks great with the leather cover I bought.
- Batery life not that great.

Peter, Rochdale
+ Good size, small and handy
- Screen too small for prolonged use, only good for mail on the move.

Kevin, Isle Of Colonsay, “Self-catering operator”
+ It was purchased to be left in a self-catering cottage for use by guests who need to send emails etc. It seems to work perfectly well and is a handy size... that particular cottage is not online, so folk can carry it down to the local pub (which is WiFi)
- I have not much experience of laptops so may be a poor judge... I found it just a little TOO small for convenience and (perhaps unreasonably) I would have liked the image to fill rather more of the available "screen" or inside-of-the-lid.

London, Jim
+ Does well as a notebook, email machine, web surfer The version of Open office on the machine is Ok for most jobs.
- Not a high performance machine but then its not expensive. It runs under Linux which has not caused me any problems but is unfamiliar to a Windows user
