this my mom's lappy, she buy coz priority at weight n thickness also she want a slightly power compare a netbook.. here's my comment:
- does not come with any external DVDrom
- the keyboard really look cheap (u press in the middle of it the whole keyboard also like being press)
- but the MSI logo behind got backlit light
- only got 4 cell batt, if 8 cell can last 8 hours if i not mistaken.. the batt really thin.. not usual batt
- the left part which at ur left hand loc, will feel a bit warm, but acceptable..
- if using w7 should increase a bit..
- only have 1 slot for RAM
- the SPEAKER is surprising loud, at review they said it the weak point, but after i test a max vol can overrun with my k40ab speaker.. but lack at bass sound, but the treble n mid sound is louder then my k40ab..
- the ventilation place is share with left speaker, so that why it's dosent hv proper ventilation for it.. (that the cause the heat at left side)
- the vista score is
cpu: 3.6
ram: 4.9 (2gb)
graphic: 3.4
gaming: 3.5
hdd: 5.2
- to reformat as easy as press F3 button b4 enter OS.. n all the driver will install itself.. take around 20-30min not sure exactly how long..
- the mouse include kind of special coz the usb socket also can place inside the mouse which the cabel is retractable (like vacuum cabel mechanism self retractable)
- but i notice the lappy it's a bit late to detect USB (even a mouse, but still acceptable)
- the package include the bag (but it's like file holder, so cant place the mouse n power adapter) so my mom ask another bag for free.. she got lenovo bag..
- the package also come with small piece of smooth clothes for cleaning
the conclusion
- my mom like it a lot, n the spec can run her SPSS (statistical software dunno for what) software smoothly, n it's light n thin..
