This computer is great for the internet and playing games. I like that it comes with a case and a mouse. The speakers are terrible but I use headphones and everything else is great. Plays Battlefield 2 and Call of Duty 4 no problem.

This notebook offers pretty much everything for a gamer and heavy user of processing power. It was difficult to find equivalent competitor models that came at this price point. The fingerprint-magnet mirror-finish looks modern, when clean, and the thing looks good overall. It is very solidly built as far as I can tell.

I bought this for a portable desktop replacement (if such a contradictory term exists). A bit heavy for a 14.1" (5.7lbs), but it does pack in a lot with 5 USB ports, VGA/DVI, webcam, and mic.
