Pros: I have had this laptop about a week from Newegg and really love it. After adjusting the ECO settings, I can manage the battery life while maintaining a bright crisp screen. On the bottom of the laptop is a felt cover that provides some cushion to vibrations and scratches. Once configured, the fingerprint scanner is a great feature. It is light and has a really long battery life as I watch DVDs on it while traveling. The speaker sound is as good as could be expected on the laptop, but the headphone sound is excellent. Highly recommended.

Cons: Small screen text size, but that is easily adjusted by using the Crtl +/- command to increase the font size. Sensor pad is a bit too small for "bigger" fingers and the left/right buttons could use a differnt texture or raising to seperate from the rest of the laptop.

Overall Review: This laptop does run very quiet and emits very little heat. I have not used all the connection points as of yet, but they are numerous as well as a DVD burner. I am a fan of Nero, but this comes with Roxio for the DVD burning software.
