Stunning
Bought this product as an upgrade to my clunky Acer and have to say I'm really impressed with it. The design is stunning and it's perfect for someone who wants the storage capacity of a laptop but with the size of a netbook. The separate DVD/CD drive is less of a nuisance than you might think and the massive HDD means I can get all my music and movies onto something which I happy to carry around (it's a slight as a feather). The only down sides is the keyboard which is a little clunky but other than that I'm very satisfied.
