General Comments

I've had mine for a couple of years and I've had endless problems with it screwing up the Windows installation, losing the MBR, random restarts, random blue screens, etc. Plus the battery life is pretty shot.

I've had to reinstall windows on this laptop more times than I can count on my fingers. In fact, it crashed whilst I was trying to write this comment so...

It's not a bad laptop for the price or size, it just seems hideously unstable and by now I'm fed up of the regular trips upstairs to root around for the Windows disk and having to reinstall all my software. I wouldn't buy another one, replacing it with a nice MacBook Pro soon.
