    The Advent 7201 is a good basic laptop. Screen is fairly decent, the graphics capability is good as it has an in-built ATI graphics adapter with 128mb of dedicated memory. It runs online games such as World of Warcraft and Guild Wars without any problems. The only poor thing about this laptop is the battery life giving only about 45mins of run time with the laptop in High Performance mode. Overall it's a fairly decent performer amd with Vista Home Premium included giving you the MS Media Centre it's great for music and video. Would recommend

    I found it to be easy to use, compact, decent laptop. However, poor graphics, slow and lots of freezing. Buy it if there's nothing else, but given a choice, Advent 7201 in my opinion probably not a good buy.

    Slow, Goes wrong quite a lot, and if site or people say it's got a modem, hear it from me it hasn't got a modem it seems, but.... it has a hole for this non exsistent modem to go.. so there you go. Wouldn't recomend avent 7201.

    Easy to use, Well priced Good for 1st or 2nd laptop.
    Mine started crashing loads its stopped working getting it sorted out, its gonna take a while...
    It overheats quite a lot, but is quick as long as you dont put to much stuff on it. Well recommend Advent 7201.

    Ease of use and cheap, for me the battery life is poor as it always seems to get really hot but my 8 year old daughter loves it as it needs no wires to go on the internet and its practical therefore I do well recommend the Advent 7201.

    Neat, Slick and reliable, but the bad points for me is that the screen is broken and Advent are very difficult to obtain parts for.
    Overall good budget laptop packed with full mobility features

    Very pleased and despite the poor battery life I think the laptop is as good as it gets for an a starter laptop. All round I am very pleased with the ease of use and speed etc.

    The Advent 7201 laptop computer is a very good piece of equipment it is handy for browsing the internet watching DVDs, listening to music and gaming it has a massive hard drive space - 80 GB - which means you can download lots of games and pictures. My dad bought mine as a very early Christmas present and I love it. I would definitely recommend it to all people who want a good laptop.

    The Advent 7201 may be fine if Windows XP could be installed on it. My nephew is threatening to do this, but I do not know if the hardware is compatible. Has anyone tried it?
