HP ENVY 100 e-All-in-One Wireless (CN517A) Up to 27 ppm 4800 x 1200 dpi Wireless Thermal Inkjet Color Printer

Pros: Sometimes it prints.

Cons: Only able to use very thin paper, thicker paper jams. Air print is flaky. Had to return due to firmware bug. Ink runs out very quickly.

Overall Review: HP tech support explained that the roller is very thin, and therefore can only handle thin paper.

Ok

Pros: Fairly Light Video card is decent Most of the hardware works in linux

Cons: Very poor resolution Power supply already needs replacement Camera is not supported in Linux Bloatware

Overall Review: There are some things I really like about this laptop. Fairly light, looks nice, video card able to play most games low intensity games, Oblivion runs fine for example. The biggest problem is very low resolution. In addition I need to replace my power supply already which is inconvenient. If I had payed full price (got it open box) I probably would have returned it. I would recommend wiping it clean after purchase. I found the facial recognition software especially useless. By the time it recognizes your face you could have typed your password 10 times.
