Pros: This is a very affordable and functional laptop, surprisingly robust for the price tag. The screen is good, the computer is very slim and light weight.

Cons: So far have not been able to get NumLock to work.

Overall Review: This is my first Windows 8 experience and it was somewhat maddening since there is no "what's new" tutorial or manual. One has to surf the web for answers. The answers can generally be found, such as how to get Skype to work without a Microsoft account which I find invasive. A newbie might be overwhelmed?
