this is a very very good notebook for the price i dont own one, but if i were looking for a new laptop, this would definitely be my choice.

i just bought one last sunday. this will be a secondary laptop so im not too worried about the low-end A6 processor.

i got the brown (it's not ugly as it is on photos, pretty nice actually IMO) one for rm1849. i stand by my previous post, this is definitely the best laptop for the price. sure you can get an i3 laptop at this price, but you don't get the same build quality and slim profile.

screen is okay but the viewing angle is terrible. keyboard is not bad. trackpad is one of the best i've used on a windows machine (still not as good as my MBP). 2 finger scrolling works well as long as u 'press' hard enough. i like the smooth trackpad texture compared to those plastic-sticky type most laptops come with.

it came with A LOT of bloatware (or maybe that's just how windows machine are these days?). first thing i did upon arriving home was to take out the HDD and put it into my MBP to install a fresh copy of win7, while scratching off all those stickers that "adorn" my new machine.

no comments about the performance yet. now installing windows8
