Pros: This is a great computer! I purchased it mainly for the graphics card and so far, I haven't been disappointed. It plays Modern Warfare 2 like a champ. Actually, most any game I throw at it, it can handle with a great frame rate after just a little bit of fidgeting with the settings. Crysis test came out to be around high to mid settings on 1024 x 768 with a fairly comfortable frame rate. Aside from gaming, it's also fantastic for menial tasks such as word processing and browsing the internet. With four gigs of ram, running on a 64-bit version of Windows 7 allows me to do all sorts of multitasking. Has a great start up time as well.

Cons: The only minor issue I have has already been mentioned with the glossy keyboard. I liked it at first because it looked cool, but as my fingers started to slip around, I became a little displeased. In the end though, I got used to it and now doesn't like such a big issue. Also runs a little hot when gaming, but honestly, I just don't put it on my lap and it's not a big deal.

Overall Review: This is a great deal! For the price you get a great computer with a beautiful, bright, widescreen display, a great graphics card and surprisingly powerful speakers.
