Surprisingly good
Pros: First of all, the build quality seems to be great. Way better than netbooks in the 30 to 60 dollar more range. I was expecting some shotty building to meet the price point, but was pleasantly surprised. The keyboard is a little cramped but doesn't feel cheap and is very responsive. N450 and GMA3150. Great price. Webcam is better than that on more expensive brands.
Cons: None so far. Some might say XP home, but i prefer it over 7 starter. 7 Starter is too limiting, and you need an OS upgrade right off the bat. Maybe battery life, but for the price I wasn't expecting more than the ~2.5 hours I get. Pretty much any other con is cancelled out by the amazing price.
Overall Review: With the money I saved getting this over a comparable Asus or other brand I got an extra gig of RAM, carrying case, and USB mouse.
Not the best
Pros: Good price, runs very fast when everything is working properly.
Cons: Too hot, can be cooled by tweaking fan settings, but then it's too loud. The one I received was defective, causes my system to hang pretty frequently when not in games, RMA-ing it. Also, the whole thing just feels very cheap, from the PCB to the cooling shroud. It's just flimsy.
Overall Review: It's just not worth saving the ~30 bucks over going with a reputable quality brand.
Good deal
Pros: Price is right, especially with mail-in rebate. Worked right away in my Gigabyte P55 based board.
Cons: None so far.
