Pros: Where to start, this thing is beautiful. I have wanted one ever since they first came out with this design, and for the price I could't say no. I have yet to actually get to use the laptop, I will be putting why in the cons.

Cons: I was all excited when I got this, I got the box open and put the battery in and plugged it in, turned it on and the screen came on, and that is when I got real sad reaaal fast. It looks as though the screen has bled electrical LCD blood, so nothing could really be seen on the screen. I immediately turned it off and started the RMA process, I hope the next one I get doesn't have the same issue- I just might cry if it does.

Overall Review: Don't let all the bad reviews, including mine, deter you from purchasing this machine, for the price it is worth the gamble to try and see if you get a good one or not. I just hope the next is a success...

Pros: Very good video card for the price, beautiful case, got this for 599.99 with MAR, plays all my games at full settings, just played AVATAR in DX10 on everything full settings no glitches or anything. I loved this laptop, but the cons outway my love for it and that is why i sent it back.

Cons: The first time i turned it on the screen never came on, so i turned it off then back on and then it froze on startup. Tried again and got to the installation and everything, that was good, then it restarted and the screen stayed black again. I read somehwere that if u take out the batter and unplug it and then hold the power button down for 30 secs then the screen will come back on, tried it and it works. Bad thing here is, i installed windows 7 64bit, MSI has absolutely NOTHING to support ANY 64bit operating system, nothing, no utilities, bios, drivers nothing. I had alrdy installed windows 7 before looking, didnt really think to look considering it is kinda silly to not support a 64bit operating system. After this everytime the laptop would sleep or hibernate when it would come abck from sleep the screen would not come back on, so u have to do what i said about the battery and unplugging it to get it to work again. MSI support on the phone or computer is absoultely terrible-------

Overall Review: ran out of room there the support and customer service doesnt speak english very well, so if you are not used to HEAVY accents then u wont know what they r saying, they also transfer u back and forth from one another and u never get ur questions answered. I really cannot think of anymore cons to put here, i know there are some more, but i just cant remember.. OOO! the panel at the top of the keyboard is LOOSE and MUSHY, the turbo button is a gimick, it does increase ur CPU speed, but that only cuz they clock it down to allow u to safely overclock their hardware.. my eco button didnt work as well, im guessing it was just mine on that..o and after about 5 minutes of use it gets SUPER SUPER hot on the right side... and all that hot shoots out too, but it makes the whole thing hot.. gonna get an ASUS X83VP-X1 instead, cant go wrong with ASUS, took a chance on its Taiwan competitor and MSI failed, no 64bit driver support really did it in for me too along witht he other things..
