Pros: Great battery life, responsive multi-gesture touchpad, size/weight, keyboard, screen, dedicated graphics memory... I love pretty much everything about this machine. The laptop has an eco mode which cuts power to the cd/dvd drive when not needed and also adjusts the screen settings for maximum battery life. It has a very nice sleep/hibernate system for also maintaining good battery life. So far I had obtained charges lasting over 7 hours with moderate-medium usage (internet browsing, streaming video, using applications, etc). The i5 combined with 4GB of memory make this laptop quick and gives it the feel and responsiveness of a desktop. Streamed 720p video no problem and has HDMI output to boot. The overall look and feel of this things is a 10 out 10. It has a dark, brushed aluminum look with a black chiclet keyboard. Seems very sturdy and well built.

Cons: Hard drive is a bit smaller than the 500GB I would have liked, but still pretty capable at 320GB. Lots of pre-installed programs to get rid of...

Overall Review: Overall this thing performs great and seems like it should be much more expensive than it is. This is truly a steal at this price!
