Pros: Great price when on sale. You certainly get what you pay for. I consider that a compliment sense far to often you get less with electronics. Will handle any day to day computing quickly. Nice median between your standard notebook and an ultrabook.

Cons: Will need some work done out of the box to get it running right. As mentioned the touch pad is terrible without a little work. Will need to adjust the wireless settings as well. Not a gaming machine, but that's not really what you buy this computer for. Just thought I should mention it. Keyboard is a little flimsy.

Overall Review: Okay, if you don't want to open the laptop up and do a little work then warning now you WILL HATE THE TOUCHPAD!!! If your not scared to open the machine then check out Youtube there is a great step by step guide to fixing the touch pad issue with a little black tape. I had the touch pad issues right away after turning the computer on for the first time. Within an hour after receiving the computer I took it apart and applied the fix. It has worked great now for 3 weeks. You will need to also adjust the wireless driver settings so that the frequency is automatic rather then set to 20Mhz. Again with a little Google searching you can find the fix. Once these two issues are addressed the laptop is fantastic. For the price...
