Score 7.0/10

+ Screen is longer than the usual screen found on laptops of it's size so great to view widescreen movies etc. Picture resolution good.

- The mousepad is quite slow and less responsive than in my previous laptop. There are two scroll sections provided on the mousepad, while they great to have, they also do sometime interfere when I am trying to use the mouse fto move the pointer across the screen. Microsoft Office software was not provided, and as I did not want to use the basic home software provided, I had to purchase Microsoft Word, Excel etc separately.
