A wonderful laptop on the heavyside

Folks, this machine is wonderful. The screen is superb. The SSD option turns it into a beast for speed. The HDD of 750 gig means yes you can have 50 of your favorite movies stored on it before you do the right thing and buy a multi-terabyte external hard drive. The back-lit key board is wonderful. But do not think too much about portability - Do not think about running around town with this machine on a frequent basis. And you'll need one of those cushioned trays if you want to take it to bed with you to watch movies - and ear-pieces. And why not an external wireless keyboard for another $30 or so? Does it replace the good old desktop? I'd say yes, it does. And the hardware is becoming so reliable these days that you do not have to learn how to fix it! Furthermore you can always beat an intruder to death with it, if negotiation fails.Read full review
