I bought this as a secondary computer. I regret the purchase. Pros: cheap Cons: constant overheating (on a chill pad), constant whole system freezes (hard shut down is only solution), will not maintain wireless connection, SLOW compared to XP even with additional 1gb RAM installed (1.5gb total--and I am anal about optimizing ram usage), cannot be upgraded at all other than ram (up to 2gb), have to leave their cheesy video player installed in order for Media player to work. And don't even attempt to play a movie...
I purchased this laptop as a step up from a PDA just to look up maps and check email while traveling and I didn't want to put a lot into another computer, especially one that could be stolen. I have had this for two months and have YET to take it on the road because it has huge ISSUES. It over heats easily, even on a chill pad--about 15 minutes (Longer only if you stituate it just right) It takes forever to completely boot, then you have to run the network connection diagnostic every 5 minutes because it won't maintain an internet connection.
A very nice unit. The picture is clear and sharp.
An excellent computer, it is refurbished and is sold for a great price!! I love it, it does run a little slow, but it is faster than XP!!
Bought this for my sister. It was slow to boot up (only 512 w/ Vista).
Bought this machine for my wife a couple of months ago. Tried everything to speed up the Vista Home Basic that comes installed but would always end up with very sluggish performance.

I have had this laptop for about 6 weeks and I have positive opinions on all points but two. The onboard speaker (I can't find but one) is very low grade.
Light, runs very quiet, and only slightly warm on the case when running. I place it behind a 20'' LCD monitor and use external kbd and mouse and I hardly notice that it is there.
This computer is crap, thought could upgrade and make good, Much better off getting a differnt make with Vista professional. I did and difference is night & day.
