NotebookReview says:

This laptop is perfect for anyone that wants mid-high performance, portability, good battery life, and just an overall high quality product for a price that can’t be beat. It has all the connections and accessories you could want and will last you for a good long while. Being Vista compliant is a big plus and not being DirectX 10 compatible doesn’t really bother me. An absolutely top notch laptop.

Pros:

* Performance (great overall performance)
* Graphics (not limited to Doom I or II era games… lol)
* Size (so many features, yet so small)
* Price (can’t beat it – period)
* All the built ins (Wireless a/b/g, IRDA, Bluetooth, webcam, mic, DVD burner))
* Speakers (loud and clear)
* Hard drive is quiet
* Free bag and optical mouse

Cons:

* 2×512 DDR2 (if you want to upgrade, you have to remove these)
* X1700 not recognized in Current ATI Catalyst drivers (may effect performance)
* Lid flexes when pushed on
* InstantOn doesn’t work as advertised
