EGGcellente Notebook!
- Pros: Hi there. First of all BiG Thnx for NewEgg costumer care!!
Now: Notebook looks nice , it is very light, came with bunch of accessories (as shown on the picture. It is very fast!
Processor 2GHz, 3GB of RAM and ATI HD video card with 1GB VRAM with DVI and VGA output. Big 250GB HDD.
Webcam and microphone are built in to make international phone calls using SKYPE! I like it! Video processing very fast. Firewire input 4 pin, 5 USB 2.0 PLENTY!!!! and card readers. I already burn some DVDs, nice and fast (however did not check the DL capability)No problem with wireless network, no drop outs. 5 stars!
- Cons: I found only 3 cons so far. THE FIRST thing which bugs me is that there is NO HDMI video output (I got myself DVI to HDMI adapter but it is just clumsy). THE SECOND, the letters on the keyboard are color DARK GRAY which makes them almost invisible at night. I get use to bright white. Anyway, THE THIRD thing, while using the USB (cute) ASUS mouse on the right side of the machine your hand will be exposed to the vent where the heat is releasing. Little warm that is all!
- Other Thoughts: I am giving this machine 5 stars. The 3 cons which I listed are NO BIG DEAL ( I just wanted to list them to be helpful)
Highly recommend this machine to everyone!
Great Notebook
- Pros: This is my first notebook computer, and it works great even with Vista. I shopped a lot before buying this computer....there is simply no better laptop for the price. A Dell with comparable features will cost you #500 more.
- Cons: The only con I can find is the wired ethernet connection, hard to disconnect the cable.
- Other Thoughts: Very nice computer, I would highly recommend it.

Very good system overall
- Pros: The laptop has great build quality as compared to previous laptops I've owned from Dell. Very solid, no creaking plastic anywhere. I like the lightweight and the 5 USB ports really come in handy. Overall I'm very happy with this purchase save for a few minor little things.
- Cons: I don't like that this thing exhausts the hot air on the right hand side of the machine since I'm right-handed. Also, the fan seems to run constantly and the air does get quite warm. Another problem I'm having with my particular model is the wireless. It keeps dropping off even when I'm in the same room as the router, an older Linksys B router. I have since upgraded that to a WRT54G and the laptop is still having trouble keeping a solid wireless connection. Also, It seems to run a bit slow at times and I'll blame that on Vista not the hardware. I'm gonna try running XP Pro on it and see if it improves.
- Other Thoughts: Overall a great system, I have been gaming on it with great results. Have been playing COD 5 Far Cry 2 and Crysis on it no problems.
Power can't be beat for the price
- Pros: Pretty powerful machine, can run Fry Cry 2 on pretty high settings at max resolution with no problem. Nice screen size and a good weight for its size. Battery life seems pretty solid to me, I can get about 1.5-2+ hours on a single charge if you turn off some Areo Glass and bluetooth and dim the screen a little. Perfect for taking notes in a class where all I need is the internet and some notepad like program. For the money (I paid $900, not $1100) you really can't go wrong.
- Cons: Case gets a lot of finger prints on it, if that kind of thing bothers you.
- Other Thoughts: I bought this laptop to replace my Macbook because I needed something more powerful for indi-grade game development. It is pretty comperable in both weight and battery life, which was very surprising. It does run Vista, but if you consider it a really bad attempt at OS X-ifying windows its just bad, instead of horrible. Let's hope they get it right or go back to what windows does best next round.
This laptop also come with a lot of nice extras (mouse, bag, cleaning cloths) which saves you on the cost of buying them if you can live with the okay style and design. Not much extra junk-ware is installed on the OS, and what is there is, for the most part, pretty useful especially if you are a computer novice or new to Vista.
I would highly recommend this laptop to anyone going off to college that needs something pretty powerful (either for gaming or computer development)
Great Laptop
- Pros: Speed, Graphics, Lots of Storage
- Cons: None really
- Other Thoughts: My laptop was shipped with 2GB Ram, not 3. And since I already threw out the box, I cant send it back. So be careful guys, when you get your laptop make sure to look for the amount of RAM that is installed.
