- Good points:
-
Its got everything I need and is so quick. The graphics are out of this world. So many USB points.
I can actually watch films on this machine as I have so much extra space. - Bad points:
-
Vista - none of my old software, my mouse, my camcorder works with Vista so I have had to purchase cables and software.
Internet Explorer doesn't work, keeps having to recover tabs - may be Vista as well
Hard drive would have been better split into 2 instead of 3 as the C: drive takes all the software and nowadays software can be quite beefy, therefore uses a lot of space.
Not sure its a good idea to have USB sockets all over the place, lot tidier at the back.

not 400 retailers nor anyone on eBay,
but please don't worry even if it hurts,
