Excellent Laptop

Pros: Plenty of speed Hybrid Foldable Touch Screen Pen Included
Cons: no cons for me
Overall Review: I love this laptop. This makes 5 laptops that I own now, (1 Dell, 2 MSI, 2 Acer) and by far this is my favorite. This laptop is not a "Gaming Laptop". I have a MSI Raider and that's where I learned there is no such thing as a "Gaming" laptop. Sure It'll play games, with the fans running at 100% and so loud you can barely hear the speakers. Keyboard gets so hot you can barely touch it, and 1 to 1.5 hrs battery life. I bought this as a production laptop and it's very good for that. I use it mostly for programming web based applications which can eat up hours of your day. It's the perfect size, thin, lightweight, and very fast, and long battery life. I did have one issue when I first got it. It would only run in the 1.5G to 1.8G range (unacceptably slow). I found the problem in msconfig where the advanced boot options was limiting it to only use one cpu core. Once I enabled all cores it started utilizing all 16 cores. Problem solved. Quick easy fix. I would highly recommend this laptop to anyone who is looking for a "get things done" laptop. Graphic artists, programmers, developers, spreadsheets, office or school use. 2 THUMBS UP
