Pros: For the black friday price of 479.99 this unit is hard to beat. Build quality is decent and with 8gb's of ddr3 and a 3rd gen Core i5 processor you have a laptop that will meet many owners needs and expectations. At 699.99 this unit would have alot more competition from Lenova and Asus which I would of considered but for 479.99 they couldn't come close to these specs.

Cons: Dell bloatware but you get that with any other brand also.
