Mark, Nottingham General home user

Score 8.0/10

Good points:: Great bit of kit no faults,
Downside is you get the laptop and charger but no backup info and no user manual.
If you buy a brand new unit then no doubt you will get all the extras but mine was a recon unit.
Graet laptop but buying a recon unit would be better if extras were included.
