Excellent notebook for the price November 30, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
We got this notebook to replace our daughter's Dell Inspiron 1500 notebook. For my daughter's purposes (2nd grader) to complete online assignments, typing stories on Microsoft Word, and visiting educational websites, this computer performs well. She also accesses her Webkinz account to play games and I use her notebook to synchronize her songs onto her IPOD Video Apple 30 GB iPod AAC/MP3 Video Player Black (5.5 Generation).
There is a port for SD cards, 3 USB ports, and NIC port for LAN access. We also have a CD/DVD drive that reads movie DVDs, software DVDs and CD-ROMs. The drive also burns DVDs.
The keyboard is ergonomic and more comfortable than other brands on the market. I do not like the layout of the accessory keys: home, pg up, pg dn, end, insert, delete. There are function keys that allow the user to change screen brightness, fast forward, reverse, stop, play/pause and print. The mouse pad is responsive and customizable for various functions. The glossy screen is bright and the quality of images from photographs and videos are excellent.
The WIFI function was easy to set up and we were on the World Wide Web, in no time. WIFI signal is excellent from anywhere in our house (3400+ square feet) and the Lanai (what we call the back porch in Florida). The WIFI function, unfortunately, drains the battery quickly. This leads me to battery life. Although this notebook is used predominantly for home use, the battery life is only about 2.5 hours with WIFI on. It would be a better value if the battery life is longer, or if the unit were supplied with a longer life battery.
The construction of the notebook is solid, despite the lighter weight of this design. The screen has little, if any, screen flex. The keyboard keys are solid and are resistant to child use. The glossy screen is easier to clean than conventional matte screens.
Performance for Microsoft Office is solid and fast. We do not use memory intensive PC games but with an integrated Video Card, the capability of hardware intensive 3 dimensional gaming would be limited. We have never tried programs like Adobe Photoshop for editing photographic images or any video editing, so I cannot answer for its higher level processing capability. Despite the 5400 RPM hard drive speed, the performance of general everyday applications is excellent.
There is an average amount of 'bloatware' (numerous trial programs and extraneous software that is unnecessary for a vast majority of users loaded on discount computers).
PROS:
Good Performance/Cost ratio
Easy to set up
Comfortable keyboard
Durable
Lighter than average notebooks of similar screen size
Screen quality
CONS:
Battery life
VERDICT:
I highly recommend this notebook for a majority of people looking to do routine Microsoft Office applications, Web surfing, synchronizing music onto your MP3 player, and wireless networking.
Two thumbs up!
